Default Thanks Ed

Ed,

The tuneup is working great. It pulls great all the way through the rpm band. Many thanks.

Damon

Id say it is

Damon and I have pretty much the same set up. His 228 is on a 112. Mine is on a 114. His heads are milled down to 59cc mine are 62cc.

On the same dyno, the same day with about twenty minutes between our pulls, I put down about 10 more RWHP than him on a junk tune.

Last week he installed his FAST 90/90 set up and I havent yet. We jumped on our cars a little today side by side, and he was clearly pulling away from me.

I guess the 90/90 works Im just not used to being treated like that

The additional tuning really helped throttle response alot. I think the 90/90 is going to be fun.

I can't wait to see what he can do with mine! Especially with a ported throttle body.

You'll need to get back on the autobahn to really try it out.
