Help with checking IAT's
Does anyone in the Dallas area have any type of data logger to check IAT's? I'm going out to the track tomorrow with some friends and was just wanting to see for sure that my pump is gone before I drop the cash on a pump. Thank you in advance to anyone that can offer any help.

You can buy an obd2 scanner at autozone for under $100. Or there are numerous smart phone apps that you can buy. Just search and you will find lots of information. Its a small price to pay to make sure your car is running right.

That is the truth! He was at my door in his 5.0 before this when I had my c5 z06 with full exhaust intake and tune! Def quick cars! Just shouldn't be that close to a stage 3 E55 I wouldn't think.

I'd say you have a handsome shot at sticking it to him. Unless of course you lose a crap load of traction and he finds it. There's some decent 11 second 5.0's out there with nothing but slicks. Regardless of trap time you'll likely out trap speed him by 10+ mph

Yeah two weeks ago when we went his best was a 12.5 at 112 so he was trapping 1mph higher than me. So hopefully this pump fixes that. Lol I was getting 1.8-2.0 sixty foots most of the night so if I still cut those and pick up 5-10mph on the top I should be 11's easy I'd think.

Wow, crazy. Dang I would love to see the difference in IAT's with the bad pump and new and of course the trap differences. I don't know if there's actually 10mph in an IC pump but I've seen weirder **** happen. Good luck man, Ill look forward to reading your results.

Well I think the plan is to run it before changing it and logging then doing the same after so we should see the results you are wanting to compare. If everything works properly on the pump Jim is so graciously donating.
