It took me 2 years of trial and error and lots of passes and datalogging to get this quick. But picking the right parts and getting the best tune has everything to do with it.

You're leaving probably a tenth on the table by not having a Vitesse throttle controller.

Thanks! Now the hard part is deciding what I want to do next? Nasty VVT Cam and heads OR LSA + cam and heads!
Keeping in mind it's still my DD!

Do you really think that the Vitesse throttle controller will take a tenth off?

Negative Ghost Rider, I think the vitesse is just a way of increasing throttle blade speed. In other words on a stock car if you move the throttle an inch it opens the blade X amount and when you add the Vitesse it's moving it quicker with that same inch of gas peddle travel. You get the feeling of more power when in actuality your just romping on the throttle thru the Vitesse.

I can accomplish the same thing with my foot!! STOMP!!
