Excellent to hear! Are those the final dyno # after they corrected everything or will we get to see new #s?


Either way, I bet it's a whole lot more fun now

He did correction on the smoothing to match, and it was minimal difference.

Whoops, I meant correcting the issues on the car . I didn't know if the dyno runs were as is or after they got it running right.

Spoke to the tuner, and he mentioned that the tune was absolute dog sh**. Car had 25+ degrees of timing, air tables were incorrect. Pretty much the whole tune was just bad.

Did I mention it actually starts?
Nice!Glad it worked out!!

1 week of enjoying the car, and the front crank seal is leaking. Service power steering also on. Need to troubleshoot the power steering part.

Welp... on she goes to the shop. Been a month since the last time I drove her. Hopefully by EOD Thursday she’ll be done.

Damn if it weren't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all.

Front timing cover replacement? Obviously it's not going to Juiced, so which shop is gonna do the repair?

No kidding! I really hope wherever it's going gets it right for you. What an ordeal.
The power steering thing could be as simple as the ground wire in the middle of the passenger side head, or one of the others on the heads where they are typically found to be loose.

Regardless, I hope the new shop will sort this stuff out for you, man.

I’m going to Speed Inc in Schaumburg. I’ve used them a couple of times before. They did my clutch on my CCZ and my camaro.

This is still the same incident from last month regarding the front crank seal. Wel I hope it’s just the front crank seal. Hopefully pick it up today.

No leaks! GOD DAMN I MISS THIS CAR. I think I blew through a 1/2 tank of E85 within 50 min.

Power steering did go out, but came back when I restarted the car.
