Anyway, the point of my comment (re: S-AFC) is that I don't think he's just going to jump 9/10 of a second and 10mph with the use of an AEM EMS in place of his flash/S-AFC, and if it does, then I don't think it's the fault of the S-AFC, but rather the people tuning the S-AFC (just a guess).

thanks to the people who said good driving or nice times...i do think there is more in the car maybe another 2mph and probably an 11.9 but i dont think ill be trying again on the same setup. ive been waiting for an exhaust manifold and in about 2 weeks the car will be out with a bigger turbo. then ill take a bunch of cracks at what it will be capabile of....right now im still tryin to decide on a summer tire.....even tho the snow tires seems to hook up at the track lol.

A shop doing a tune for a customers streetcar will most likely not tune for absolute max power on the verge of popin the motor. If that 110 run was clean, there is power to be had in fine tuning, BUT you will need to stay on top of the tune to cover day to day changes in fuel quality, atmosphere, and vehicle condition. A pumpgas tune that was good, but on the edge of detonation can easlily pop the motor next week on a different tank of fuel, boost controller loosening, boost leak, or air change.

Congrats on the times.. I cant believe some of the neg comments in this thread. It is what it is ,,, He ran 12.1 on pump gas at 20 psi of boost, on pump gas. He drove the **** out of it. Not too many people running those times on pump... hats off to you

Etown always has trap speed issues on test and tune nights for some reason. I used to go all the time and my traps sucked. Then I went to another track ran a worse time back to back but had higher trap speeds. Go figure?
