In my case, yes. I just think that this particular tuner is more conservative than previous tuners. Perhaps being on the dyno versus the track played a part.

After all, he sent me the dyno tune and another tune with 2% less fuel.

But everyone here knows that the tuning is not done yet. If I test somewhere at 2000 ft. there will be lots of edits.

So much for what we said about a better engine creating less boost. I took it on the road today for the first time since the dyno and it made 20#+, just like it always has with this blower. Power felt great though.

You’re making roughly 80 more HP at that same boost level though…

Taking it down to Kearney Nebraska on the 20th for testing. Too bad it's not today. The density altitude was about negative 50 ft

The car ran 1.35, 9.25 at 151, and just like that, they sent me home. 6-hour drive each way for only one hit.

That's a great run, right there with the Demon 170, although the 170 wouldn't have run that time at your altitude so you're actually quicker than that at sea level.

Great run. Surprised they didn’t let you run some 1/8 mile hits at least… throwing you off for being 1 mph over is a jerk move.

pretty good for just one hit

I probably didn't handle the discussion with as much savvy as was required.

DA was 4800-4900

Yep... over 150 you need a chute! Congrats!

This thread is mainly about the LME390, which runs flawlessly and doesn't use a drop of oil.

And a full cage…

I'll go to a different track. Run a bunch of 8th mile and thousand feet hits, then a quarter mile hit or two until they shut me down.

A roll cage would completely ruin the car. It's not worth it.
