I forget about my tune and was just thinking about mods. I've never ran a 91 tune so I don't know how much slower it would be. My first was the 93 tune when I ran 12.02, then the 100 tune didn't seem much faster but as I put more time on the ecu it started to show on my slips. Seat of the pants dyno didn't seem like it, but my mph get getting higher and times lower.

Yes BLKFIN you got tree'd
I need to data log more on the ¼ track but the three passes I did log were telling. Heat is more of an issue on the ¼ track compaird to the 1/8 track because of prolonged WOT. My first pass was 12.20 and eng temps reached 194 deg while IAT hit 160. My second pass was a hot lap and I trapped 12.37 where eng temps reached 207 while IAT hit 170. Due to that heat, timing was pulled, mph was reduced, boost fell and it reflected in my ET. Those things happen on the 1/8 track but not as extreme, talking hundreds and not tenths. I’m going to go with colder plugs and Split coolant reservoirs too see how that helps.

I wonder what max temps are hit with the 178 or Code 3 pulley….. Based on your sign, that tune is killer !
