brfatal - great to hear the feedback, is your ECU also tuned and if so which tuner?

curious for more feedback from owners of this TCU tune who have the different ECU tunes out there???

This MCT does have a little hitch in its giddy-up. Can’t wait to get rid of it as well when they come to atlanta

You guys can get access to the exact same TCU as offered by EC ATX via member 5Soko aka Senad in the tri-state area... reach out to him directly.

For some reason it reads invalid but it’s on the same road every time. Definitely have traction issues so I’m 100% confident at the track I can pull a 10.3 With full interior with some smaller wheels. These times are with 20x10 all around with continentals

The slope may be exceeding a certain threshold.

-1% may be considered downhill enough to make that invalid.

it’s the same exact road as the 10.5 same start point. I’m thinking my draggy unit must have moved . I’m gonna start taping it down

I know they're not as sexy to post, but do you have some runs on the same road & same mods, but with worse DA? I'm curious what impact it has. It's still 3000 DA where I'm at.

You've probably posted it a bunch of times, but what are your mods again (besides the race gas)? That 105+ 1/8 trap is

we were both out last night searching for that cool air...my Dragy unit does some wonky **** sometimes, wrong altitude, MPH, will display in Chinese, lol but clears itself up. I think you use it as I do to see the delta on a set road relative to mods and conditions.

correct. I don’t deviate from that spot that way the times are consistent. I have a video on draggy and you can see it’s not a slope but it’s all good.
