Default did a new tune. more power and more happy.

I spent all afternoon yesterday refining my tune and getting it all dialed in. Gotta give props to SCT for making the software as easy as it is to use.

Bumped top end timing 2 degrees and messed with the fuel curve all over the place. Feels like a 10hp-ish bump. Mooey happy.

Edit:
I have to say that getting it all dialed in with a 75mm TB is a BITCH! 70's are hella easy upside the 75's. Note to owners of 75's... get a tune. You should have seen what it did to my part throttle AF... bad things.

You can't feel 10hp.

Oh boy.....them is fighting words....

(you can't feel 10 hp, but you can "feel" a good tune in other words....ie responsiveness, smoothness, idle etc...)

Did you feel a difference when you added the c&l plenum and t.b?

if you know your car well enough and you're not making gobs of power... then yeah you can feel it. My car only puts down (last recorded) 244/281. 10hp represents a pretty significant bump at that level.
