I finally got my car tuned yesterday. She's putting down 310hp/260tq. I thought it would be a little higher but I think the midrange is really where most of my gains were. It feels great and really responsive now. I think if I want to see bigger gains I need headers. I doubt I'll ever go FI. I'm very happy for now though.

So you officially have no reason to bow out of a meet since your car must not be in pieces anymore. |

Onelownismo,
how long did it take him to tune your car... how much would I expect to pay... did you buy any equipment?

He quoted me $700 but gave me a $50 break. It took him about 2.5 hrs. No I didn't buy anything other than an Uprev License which is half of the tuning cost. He said if I take it back to get retuned for any reason it will really only be about $150-250.

Onelownismo, thanks for the info... Kai, I'm finishing my capstone project today... maybe next week... I have a training session at 0800 next Saturday, but I'm free after 9ish and i'll be out near VA beach area... maybe we could meet up at Starbucks or something...

Kai I'm at work until 19:30, maybe after that if I don't head to my GF's place.
I can definitely do something next weekend though (except Saturday during the day).
