Can't remember his name, but it was only him running it alone. He had only 2 laps with me and didn't say a word until the end of the 2 laps. Thanks for the tip

As far as the COBB AP with shelf Nismo map, I was going to ask the same question after seeing your first page with mods.

Q: Did this eliminate the notorious throttle lag? I have a buddy with contacts at UpRev and almost pulled the trigger on a basic tune...but UpRev stated they are still looking into a fix for the throttle lag and it's due to the VVEL (varible valve event lift).

It seemed to help a little but after some heatsoak I felt a little bit of lag while driving in traffic. The partial throttle tuning feels MUCH improved overall though

Gotcha. I've had good luck attending Sondra's events/schools: Velocity Adventures

Barry is definitely an instructor I would recommend with Velocity Adventures.

As someone else suggested TDE events are pretty good and they have a bunch of instructors.

I'm signed up for TDE on Nov 4-5 at MSR Houston. They also have another one before that, at Texas World Speedway in early Oct.

I've been to MSR-H twice now for their informal open-lapping days, I really like the track, but I don't have a lot to compare it to outside of video games

. Both times I went before it was running clockwise, and I believe for TDE they'll be going CCW, so that will be a nice change (and probably save me some fuel starve).

hey lee hope you caught some of that rain today! a car wash was way overdue for my car but the rain solve that lol gonna need a proper wash soon either way. hope to see what wheels you'll go with eventually

Boost_lee · 10-18-2011, 02:48 AM

Well, I decided to go this route for my first set of wheels. This will help me decide where to go with the car in the future. Call me cheap, but I'm gonna try to make these look good
