Awesome!!! Can't wait for your results. Be sure to put a few miles on the tune before the dyno to let the adaptations settle. How does she drive?

its been hot as **** specially thursday and friday. You need to do it somewhat cold. Maybe let the car sit up there overnight and strap it down. let it warm up to operating temperature from just idling, that way the intercoolers arent heat soaked. Do you feel a difference in the butt-dyno? Itd be a really good idea to just go ahead and throw the down pipes in there to get some heat out of the exhaust and engine. I know all too well owning a supra how intake air temps kill power. when its 50* outside i cant hook up period. when its 100* its weak sauce. Im assuming ya'll know how to put it in dyno mode?

Nothing yet. Sent all the data to Cory. I had it to the track last Fri with the tune as dynos aren't the be all end all, but the results there were not as expected either.

Thanks, but the SL is kind of on mothballs until we get the tune sorted out.

Corys programmer is cooking up a new file. I sent the ecu back off and should have it back Thurs. If I see some promising results on the dyno I may go to the track Fri.

What did he think the issue was with the initial file? And how far off were your dyno/track results from expectation?

ya you never know how the m.e. will take the reflash. Hell half the time xentry/das puts the m.e.'s in a boot loader mode and everything goes to ****, and thats factory equipment. well hopefully you get it sorted out. if you can hook up theres a good chance you'll be faster.

Back to the drawing board guys. I just had the car checked for wheel/tire combo fitment today. They are too wide & tall. Also I am told my ABS won't work? Because of 18's on back and 19's on front?? This info is from Autoscope in Plano, my car is there now.

JumpinJim, what say you? I thought those were the exact specs for the C, and the guy at the wheel shop even told us he had others running that precise combination. Something doesn't add up. Assuming they sent the correct size wheel..?
