got it tuned
The weather was a little hot for the dyno tune session, 95*+ heat, but I'm happy with the results.
Tuner said the stock throttle body is a bottle neck on it, costing me approx 2lb's boost, So I just ordered that today. It runs great, now that its running on all 8 cylinders, one of the plugs didnt have an electrode on it. Tuner suppects previous tune was a little aggressive on timing hence the burnt spark plug. Traction has become an issue in 1st and 2nd from a roll now. Big smiles from hear to hear. Time to hit the strip again, and bury the 12.19 run from last yr. It should be in the low 11's....
540rwhp, 519ftlbs torque. should be close to around 570-580 with the new throttle body.

That's too bad. There's a CAM member with a Terminator who is planning on being there. He got it tuned by Lidio last year.
But, we wouldnt want you getting to the car show late or anything. You'll need plenty of time to vacuum out your cupholder.

Have you seen the housing market lately?
If you're like most Americans, losing $30,000 on the sale of your house won't get you any closer to a Terminator.

We have a Cobra convoy going up this year. It should be a fun drive going up their with 2 -Terminators and 2 - 2001 Cobras....... hope the weather is dry & cool. Now we just need a military grade radar detection system & laser jammer......
