Doh, should have saw Cedar Falls in your OP!  Is that a 91 or 93 tune?

Love seeing more Torrie tuned SHO's in the 12s!

Post by: boostedbull on October 12, 2014, 02:32:20 PM
91 tune

Post by: PokerMunkee on October 12, 2014, 02:36:22 PM
Sweet, even better! lol.   I only have 91 available too.  Getting a Torrie tune in January after I've had my car for 6 months.

Op next time u go hit me up for sure. I am glad that is on 91 octane. We have 93 here in waterloo but its 4.50 per gallon while 92 is 3.70sh. I will juat start using 92 since it looks like there shouldnt be much of a difference.

93 up here in Michigan is $3.29 :p

I need to make a trip to the track, anyone having traction issues with all these 12 second runs? With brand spanking new tires, plugs, tune and cold air intake I break the tires loose consistently.

This cheaper gas is winter blend and I've noticed a considerable uptick in KR readings ever since these prices dropped. Really thinking the 91 tune or a couple gallons of e/85 added to a fill up might help. About to try the e/85 mix today.

Was tuned by unleashed. It is a 91 octane map

Car is a 2012 PP

And yes traction was a problem. I ended up dropping tire pressure to 22 in the front.  Still had considerable tire slippage thru first gear and part of second but the awd was keeping it under control

Anybody keeping tabs of LMS tune onlys vs. Unleashed tunes onlys in the 12s?

Awesome time. Just insane to me these gargantuan cars can shuttle off like that, especially with nothing more than a tune.

All the times are in the sigs. But a nice list of both stables with times and mod levels would be cool. In a fun sense as both stables are top notch and deserve to be treated that way.

Would be fun, IF people treated it that way.  No way to make an objective comparison unless done on the same vehicle under the same conditions at the same time to minimize other variables.  Guesstimate, sure.  Accurate, MAYBE.

For sure. Slightest bit to much heat soak and your 60' takes a hit...

Don't make me tear the seats out...lol

Only fair way to go about it is to have both tuned cars line up next to each other.  The East Coast guys at their negative DA tracks have a huge advantage.  All the fastest times are always ran at Atco, etc.

From my view, Unleashed and LMS are running at the same time times.  A .1 or .2 is even steven.

Agreed.  The only thing to make it far would be to adjust to sealevel.  Like tonight when I go, I should have DA below sealevel.

Unleashed 93 X4 tune and it's a MKS so I'm guessing thats comparable to the non-PP?

That completely slipped my mind, I guess the meth kit is moving up the priority list! That wouldn't really help with my traction issue though :P
