    Another Positive Experience

    I stopped down Mike's today to catch up and take a few runs on the dyno. I wanted to adjust my 19# tune out a little, by adding one degree of timing (was at 18, now 19). Jon was nice enough to add timing and adjust a couple other things and emailed the tune back quickly. Run showed 580 hp 534 tq 19* timing on 102ish octane. Another note, nothing has changed on the car, even down to the same belt. Although, we noticed I could probably go down an inch or so in belt size. I know its only been 6 months since my previous dyno tune post (making 565 hp 534 tq). I figured we may as well get a base # to start with on his dyno. So when I go back to check things (say a year from now) I know were the power etc was at before. Summarizing it up, I'm very pleased. As said tweaking the tune a little, I gained 15 hp in the upper range. Car feels great. I honestly don't ever see a reason to take my car anywhere else. Mike is so meticulous with his work. I recommend his work highly. As for Jon, as most know he is a great tuner. I appreciate him helping on such short notice.

    Little extra: On the way home I did run into a white c6 vette that wanted to race (had an exhaust at the very least) Well, I changed his mind about that pretty quick. He wouldn't even come up beside me after. What a shame.

    Big thanks goes out to Mike @ Wolfpack and Jon Lund!

    Nice numbers. Looks real good. I knew I should have stopped by on the way home today. Probably could have seen it in action.

    No problem, I will be back soon. The only thing I wish I had today was a video camera.

    Well I needed to get a couple things adjusted, then the tune rechecked. But seeing decent #'s doesn't hurt. Never get hung up on dyno #'s

    Nice #'s bud!
    It's nice to get your car dynoed on a dynojet for comparison's sake and it is the industry standard.

    What are your future upgrades your looking to do?

    Thanks a lot guys, as Mike knows, its been a project with ups and downs. So we are happy it's finally where it needs to be. Future plans? Looking at:

    Full length subframe rails
    Headers (probably Bassani)
    IRS needs some beefing up
    Possibly switching to a single disk clutch with 26 spline.

    Those are my next areas of focus which will probably be done towards the end of summer or fall. Power is pretty good for now. One thing we noticed is my tq is a little low. I have a stock lower pulley currently. Would be nice to get 15-20 extra tq from an after market lower pulley at some point. Thanks again guys, the car will be out a lot more this year. I do plan on going down to watch on the dyno day at Wolfpack. So I hope to get to meet some of you in person.
