I'll check it out.

I'm not terribly concerned with it since I'm track racing, but it could come in handy.

Was just wondering if there was any news from the 'brain trust' since BTR sounded like had made some progress on it.

75 shot of nitrous on top of 20+ PSI of boost is how he got off the line fast.

Still having timing issues.

4 times they have re timed it and keeps throwing codes on start up

They have asked me to come up and flash it back to stock to ensure it's not a tune issue

Although we all know it's not a tune issue. It didn't go in with a timing issue...

Engine replacement has been approved by GM under warranty!

Should be back up and running in a few days

If this is the case, how come Will hasn't figured this out?

This 84% throttle opening below 3500 rpms is the one thing keeping me from getting a tune. Why trash the powertrain warranty if all I'm getting is 84% at WOT.

However, if those guys figured it out, they should share it with Will so he can provide that feature in his tune package.

Someone said he just sprays below 3500.

He hasn't figured it out. That was misinformation

And....with the warranty thing. Flashing doesn't void your warranty.

It all depends on your relationship with your technician, service writer and manager

I happen to have a good one.

The calibration screen when they hook up my car is pages long when it should only be ONCE.
