LET Dyno Tune today by Wayne...
Props to Wayne... ended up putting down some great numbers today with a tune.
Previous owner had gotten the car Dyno'ed before, numbers then were SAE corrected - 413.23/500.82 (Pulley and Thermostat).
Final numbers are SAE corrected - 470.32/494.91 (Pulley, Thermostat, K&N Filters, and LET Tune). Only difference with the car... I have since added K&N filters and of course Wayne doing his thing.
Thanks again Wayne... you the man! I might have to head to MIR on the 15th to help support the effort.

Well, due to the oil cooler I can't have my CF lip on the car. So, Allen is getting my LET H/E-Pump setup and I am going with another which will allow me to put my CF lip back on.

Dunno who that was for, but no. I just have an add on from VRP. I am thinking to replace the OEM SC cooler and just use it for the separate SC setup. think some of the aftermarket ones add good volume. If not, I'll get an even bigger add on and keep the OEM one, too.

Results DON'T surprise me. Wayne and LET are amazing. I have yet to see or hear a single person that hasn't at least been satisfied with LET's tuning capabilities, let alone their service. And, most of the people reporting have been ecstatic with the results, myself included.

Wayne made a few pulls where the car put down 500 + foot pounds of TQ. The highest number falling on the TQ side was 507.
Everyone knows a person can manipulate numbers by cooling and such which wasn't done during this dyno tune. Not to mention, I am not one that cares about peak numbers... they are for the birds. Give me under the curve numbers, throttle response, and gear changes and I'm a happy camper.
I do however think if you run at the track... a dyno tune should reflect same steps which would be taken at the track. Ice, tires pressure set to drag day specs, etc etc. This way one sees exact numbers for the similar scene which will be showing true trap speed for under the curve and of course peak numbers.
All said and done, Wayne is a great guy! I would highly recommend him to any needing a tune.
