    I would too if I already owned it ... to buy it again, it's 4X the price for half the features

    Seriously, we need to meet up at the track again and let you play with the tuning software. You will be amazed how this works and the log capabilites. Simply amazing.



    I actually am very lucky she completely supports my car addiction, both with spending money and being at the track and helping out around the shop. Don't tell her I said that though :D

    Got to the track today and got one pass in before the rain came ...

    Car went 12.33 at 111 on a spinning 1.64 60'

    Lots went wrong LOL, coming out of the burnout my laptop went flying, luckily I saved it by pulling out the USB connector to my Squirt ... No VE live, no data log. This was a weak set-up for me (low boost, speed shift only) so I'm thrilled for a first pass on a new combo. Nothing fell off the car and it ran pretty good (although fat)

    Video for reference ... (Excuse Chuck jumping into the video ;) )

    No, I had the rev limiter set low today (compared to my normal)and the burn out was against that. Lots of guys I know was stuggling with traction and that was the first pass on those tires this year so I hit them a bit hard. There is only one rev limiter on the car.

    Yes Joe, was happy with what it ran for the combo I put in it. Lots to tune and dial in (boost, timing, and fuel out)

    So there was less RPM's?

    Thanks Ed, was nice to be out for sure. I really wish I could of got just one more pass before the rain.

    For sure it was better today than it has been.1st pass on my tires after storage so they sucked, plus I was after all the delays for the timing system. It will take me a few passes to get back to high 1.50's (i hope).

    Greg, it went against every bit of my soul, but yes, I need to shake the new combo down and started lower to get a pass in to try to get data. When the laptop went flying and I pulled the plug out it all went out the window and I've regretted it since. Never again, rpm will only go up.
