Yah, I would prefer to do all of the steady state tuning on a dyno then adjust from there. My car is loud and red with plenty of equipment infractions that would just be a pain if I was to be pulled over for anything. I am reading as many of the how-to's as I can find, I have several articles and books from Greg Banish who is from what I know "the man" when it comes to EFI tuning.

Thanks guys

Oh okay for a baseline tune. That could work, But you will still have to do some high speed street tuning to get your WOT right in less than optimal conditions.

For example, I can run 18* WOT in optimal conditions on 91 E0 without any knock, but in less than optimal conditions it's more like 16* with 15* at the very top of the RPM/load range.
