jordak Member 1,226 Member For: 20y 5m 5d Posted 31/08/06 03:47 AM Share Posted 31/08/06 03:47 AM This is just another example of people placing too much emphasis on maximum power instead of the whole tune I.e how quickly it comes on boost and where the power is made etc.A "complete" tune that delivers good low / midrange, 250rwkw with a 2.1 60' would get into the 12's.As a comparison I'm running similar power to yours and with a worse 60' managed a 12.8 @ 182kms on stock tyres. From memory Flukey ran a 12.55 with around 255rwkw albeit with a better 60'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougM Member 22 Member For: 18y 5m 13d Posted 31/08/06 04:07 AM Author Share Posted 31/08/06 04:07 AM I agree. I've never been one to look at outright power alone....The real world is more than just numbers....That's why I have asked the question about my time. I can now compare PERFORMANCE and not just a dyno figure....So maybe my custom tune wasn't as good as it could have been???Cheers.Doug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can start chasing lower ET's in a number of ways, but the bottom line is, as the times come down, the stress on all your components goes up substantially.Do you have a specific goal you wish to achieve?

DougM Member 22 Member For: 18y 5m 13d Posted 31/08/06 05:18 AM Author Share Posted 31/08/06 05:18 AM I was told to leave it in performance mode and let it shift on it's own....This was supposed to be faster!!?? I left that as a constant last night and tried different tyre pressures and launch techniques. Unfortunately I didn't get the dyno print out.I'm not really after a specific target for now as the car is very mild.....I took it out last night to see how it would perform and if the custom tune is working as well as possible. At the same time, I don't want to be killing the car!! I was going to try a different tuner but at $400-500 for a custom tune it's an expensive process!!Cheers.Doug.
