New tune and back to the strip to test it out.
I took the SHO back to the strip. I installed a 3 bar MAP sensor, the new tune, 160 Tstat and one step colder plugs. Last time out my best was 13.23 and this time I got a best of 12.75. Needless to say I'm very impressed with the new tune and 3 bar MAP. well with the $250 bucks it cost for both. I even had more gas this time, weighed in at 4,555 compared to 4,515 last time. Temp was 60 and we had a 15 mph head wind.

Goodness.... That's hauling... Really hauling. Especially considering the weight and small amount of money invested. Any videos?

Half a second for $250?! Some people spend $25,000 to get that! LOL. Nice!

No videos yet. Only two of us are going together and neither of us want to sit on the sidelines to video. I will try next time if I can get somebody to go with me.
