Glad you made it back! I can't wait to see and hear the videos.

Nice numbers. Glad it is working out, and looking forward to the videos and dyno chart.

Wow, congrats for such great numbers on your setup. This thread is def full of excellent info for those planning to eventually go your route. Repped for having the huevos to go through this process and make it :tiphat:

Looks awesome Ryan. Pretty crazy you were running that lean and the numbers were that far off. What was the original shops response? I'd be pissed, lucky you didnt damage the engine at wot

Good point.

If the motor was running lean, this could of also caused the increase in temps you were experiencing.

Man this thing is nice. I went over to his house to pick up a clutch cable and was able to see it in person. Very interesting setup, would love to do something like this but do not have the baller status of Ryan. This is something that one must see once in their lifetime, maybe next time I will talk him into a ride. LOL..

The more I think about it, the more it frustrates me that your car left the dyno the first time like that...and it's not even my car!

You are lucky that the PS pump and wiring harness fried...because it got you into Z1 otherwise who knows what would have happened after a weekend of running around with a tune like that.

It just firms up my opinion that the tuner at that shop should never touch another car again...he's a moron. (I'll keep from posting the shops name up and let you make the decision to do that if you already haven't earlier in the thread) I got a bad feeling when I was there before and now know that his skills and dyno are just inferior and he should be embarrased and glad that your car is ok. Maybe I'm missing something but you better get a full refund no questions asked.

Your car looks incredible and hope to be able to see it and get a ride soon:tup:

Thanks:tup: Yeah, I definitely wasn't happy. The original shop is going go give me a refund for the upgraded MAF sensors and they said a partial return on the tune...we shall see.

Yeah, I'm glad it didn't! I didn't go WOT once for the 600+ mile road trip up to Zdayz...but once on the Dragon, I couldn't hold out any longern

Kelly, it was good meeting you! Thanks for making the drive out. I'm excited to see your work in progress. And a ride is in store next time for sure;)
