22 degrees? ive been chillin in -40 lasrt week. time for spring soon i hope.
i was just asking, cause i let somone dyno tune my car once....... and the firewall was fried, it was slow as hell. slower than stock. hence why i bought hpt to figure the mess out.
see i took it in for a pull only. they he calls my wife and says >>>>>>>>>yadda yadda, i can fix it for you. she gave him the nod. i believe it sounded like popcorn , and was 13.2 afr WOT above 5500. my dear god. good thing i fixed it before it sploded. i knew within the first block it was FUBAR.

actually it is an established business in town with a mustang, and a part time tuner.
they have an engine dyno as well; and do builds.
dunno why he did what he did to mine. many ppl say hes great, and a few say hes the opposite.
i just wanted a pull so i could do some modds and go back to the same dyno for an evaluation.
i had no intention of getting tuned. why tune before you add all the parts, doah.
but thats ancient history i guess.

Damn Area, very nice numbers! I wish I could have spent those 3 hours on the dyno with you to learn some of your secrets.
Once I get back I need to get on the stick with some tuning. I was only at 11.3-11.5A/F ratios and 21* of timing before I left with the meth spraying. I can only imagine the extra power I could yank out of it with some more time.

most of mine comes from "not so normal" practices really. off the wall 60lb map that is more experimental than anything else. timing is pretty out there as well. you gain more power from afr than you do timing. this was part of my 4 part experiment last night

Someone left the spacer on when they got rid of the car.

I wish I would have taken all my parts off the car before it left. Everyone bugs me for that spacer plate I had for my meth. Only thing I got from it was my PLX wideband controller box, and I have no idea how that ended up out of the car into my garage.
I got a lot of stock parts laying around, but that is about it.
