    that intense caned tune is holding you back alot, i think with just a dyno tune and a little bit better roll you got him. i did not see them come around you till half way thru third and well third aint really got that much to it. do a 40 if its a roll.

    and your supposed to hit it right before the 3rd honk, that way when you hit the 3rd honk the trans is already downshifted and your ready to do

    i completely agree the intense tune is holding me back a bit, i told him to make it conservative, and well he did, just so i can drive it everyday, Dave @ triple edge told me timing was set real low, and i have some room. I have a 3.6" zzp mps, just sitting in the box. The car does get some knock 1.4* was the most, in this cold weather. I don't know a whole lot about tuning, ive been wondering if it can be tuned out so i can run my 3.6?

    lol yeah auto takes a sec to go from 4th to 2nd, we did about 6 runs, on one of them i hit it right before, so we got going at the same time, i did a little better, but he kept walking regardless

    if your only getting 1.5 deg of knock on a cold night from a caned tune then there is probably alot left in it. im sure fueling and timing could be tweeked some to get a bit more power.

    if you are going to get it dyno tuned or custom tuned i would throw the 3.6 on there and let them tune it in for that. if they cant get some decent timing out of it just put the 3.8 back on.

    thats the way i would get pullies tho, by the .2 .3 is a little large of a jump and .1 is not that much of a difference.
