If money is no object people feel the 82mm is worth it...Frankly I'd try to reduce the tire / rim weight as much as possible - I think you'll gain a lot more than expected....

Running 11's with a pump tune and 4000lb luxury car is pretty amazing in my book....Going for more will cost $$$, could start to make the car less of a street car, and impact reliability IMHO...

Were you logging AFRs and IATs on your runs ?

Next time have a 1/4 tank of gas max when you get to the track and lose the spare. I also remove my front grille from the car for more airflow.

Removing the air filters will help as well..

no logs yet, still waiting for my Innovate LC-1. I've got the OT-2, but it's useless without an iPhone, and my iPhone broke so I can't log anything at the moment

Dont remove air filters.

You can log with an ipad or ipod as well....or an android device.

Good luck

my android wouldnt connect to the OT-2, apparently they don't support it. Androids only work with Bluetooth OBD-2 dongles
