SHO's First Time to the Track.

I've been meaning to bring the car to the track for a couple weeks now ever since I got my Unleashed Tune.  Well, today (Sunday 4-27-14) I made my way to Milan Dragway in Milan, Michigan for some Test & Tune action.  I was very pleased with how well this car ran!  The car is pretty much all stock aside from the tune.  I had a bet going with several of the locals that if the car didn't run 12.xxxx today that I'd have down-pipes on order first thing Monday morning.  :P  Needless to say, I don't need to order down-pipes (yet).  :laughing1:  I made 5 passes in total.  Aside from finding the perfect rpm to launch the car at these things are obviously pretty brainless to get down the track.  Track conditions were fairly ideal aside from a nasty headwind.  Track temp was 53 degrees. Track elevation is 672.6 ft. Density Altitude is usually pretty low this time of year.  I was ecstatic with the results.  Out of curiosity, how does my time compare with other tune only cars?

From what I have seen.  That is fast for a tune only

And that too for a non-PP SHO!  Well done, & congrats.  Go Kona Blue!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Damn, you were hauling balls for just a tune only! I'd have been happy with that time AFTER down pipes. Very nice!

1.81 60' is fantastic, that's where all the time is from, most are at 2.0 60' or high 1.9X.
Great job!
Downpipes on there will make an even bigger difference tuned.

No clue, what are the tire specs for the tires on the 20" wheels?

19s are a little shorter... 28.1" vs 28.7"

Good for a tick of gear and probably a little lighter.


Nice run for sure... id be happy with that and I have o/r downpipes and catback
