    Default A little progress

    First:



    Second:



    Changes: Tires and ran no intake

    Third:



    Changes: Even better tires and true dual exhaust (also read below).

    The new base tune on the car sucks. It will barely crank due to flooding and runs rich under WOT too.

    Yea, not the best night. Just glad it started hooking better (finally dropped the tire pressure to 11 psi and got it to hook). I'm hoping the tune will help it into a 12.99

    Thanks man. I'll see if I have anything going on that day.

    Looks like driver's side o2 sensor is fouled out and the knock sensor is pulling timing...

    Same here until I got my pressure set. Trying to get my tune figured out, it's even worse now with some new sensors.
