Default Waldig, my delay is gone

Rather than doing this by IM with Waldig, I wanted to share this 'cause I know other folks have been struggling with the delay.

I've now done 3 autocross events after modding the SRT6 a few months ago...
Needswings DCAI, 178mm crank pulley with the pulley saver kit, and
Eurocharged tune.

The past 2 autocross seasons I've been experiencing the delay when mashing the pedal, it feels like a turbo is spooling up before launching and is extremely frusterating. So far this season I've had NO delay, none, not even a hint of one, it's INSTANT POWER, like you'd hope for.

I can't say exactly which mod solved the problem, but I suspect it's the tune since I think that was the only thing Waldig didn't have that I had. Also, Tony from Eurocharged said the delay would disappear.

Anyway, for what it's worth, something is working because the delay is gone.

Talking Re: Waldig, my delay is gone

This is interesting and potentially very useful. Our cars can be a pig-dog on acceloration as you have noticed and no delay would help all styles of driving, track to street. Thanks WOODY

its the tune...I remember when we were talking while getting my tune, it was mentioned I wouldn't necessarily need the sprint booster anymore, but they could tune around it...at least I hope I heard them right, because that is what I will do with the new coupe, is tune around it...no need to buy a sprint booster if this is the case.
