Wow... cool. Not bad for an off the shelf map. I always heard the accessport maps were kinda rich so I was expecting 10.9-11.2ish... I do have AMS upper IC piping thats not on the cobb map, maybe that made me a little leaner?

I am still working on the tune, but so far the car is running extremely well. I can certainly feel the difference. Once I get the AFR set where I like it, I will tune it for some more power. As it is now, I am running 29psi of boost. It is hitting full boost by 3800 rpm. Spinning the tires is easy now.

Yeah Jim, from a stop...I can spin the hell out of them. Shifting fast and hard results in the tires cutting loose too. I am on summer tires too. I am tuning it to be a torque monster. AFR is close to being spot on. Boost is up to 29psi. I have room to go up to about 32psi, but I don't want to push the green too hard. It loves e85.
I hope to get a few clean pulls so I can post the results.
If anyone is wanting to make the switch, I highly recommend it. Fuel mileage does not suffer as much as one would expect. Power is vastly improved. The car runs amazingly well on this stuff.

jimib, just checked our your build thread. Pretty impressive work! I had my first attempt at porting my head this past winter and it went well. I wish I had a dyno to do a stock vs ported comparison. Do you work for anyone locally to build engines? If you ever need a hand or dont mind people watching Id love to check out your builds. I always love learning new things.

booked on two more back to back jobs, so looks like no Ohio reunion/tracking in September :-(
But I think me and my buddy up here are doing a NASA HPDE at Pocono on September 4th, if anyone would like to join!

Anybody in the greater Cincinnati area have an Innovate LM1 I can swing by and use your serial cable for a few minutes so I can diagnose my LM1 problems? Im having trouble logging and I am 90% certain its not the usb to serial adapter..
