Are you still running an AEM or have you switched to stock ecu?

AEM version 1. I "think" I eventually want to go to stock pcm, for the shear cool factor of being able to pass inspection without any tricks up my sleeve, but AEM is pretty great for what it does.

We tuned it on E85 from our local pump (at $2.69 a gallon, sweet!!). We got up to about 360 whp on the fuel pump on it's low setting before we ran out of injector using the 1600's. We changed the jumper on the pump to it's high setting, and had more fuel than we knew what to do with. At the end of tonight, it's at a safe, knock free tune in 75+ degree weather, and it makes 393 whp and around 340 ft/lb:


As a comparison, in a 200 - 300 pound heavier car last year with 358 whp, I went 11.010 @ 124.55 mph, so this car is going to boogie! I got on it leaving the shop in second gear, and it instantly nuked the tires away, and I had to get out, as it started to lose control. It's an utter monster. I couldn't be happier

I drove it for 25 minutes back to my house on the street, and it was pretty good! Easy to drive in my opinion, for short runs without power steering. The exhaust blowing on my legs was more of a nuisance, hah. It is LOUD!!!!

Awesome man...glad you guys finally got it running & tuned...def sounds like its gonna be a beast & def looking forward to track results...good luck!

I speak for everyone on my end when I say thank you. We poured our hearts and souls into that car... She looks amazing once again. I know she is in good hands. Good luck with it and most of all enjoy her. Dont lose sight of the fun factor. It can become work and stressful very easy...

I pulled out the seats today, and I need to drill new holes in the bracket to fit me in there. I am just a little guy

I should have those up in the next day or so, all back together, and then hit the track!
