220 WHP after Jan's tune

Just wanted to share with everyone my recent results after having Jan do the tune this past weekend.

Notice couple of things, the tq. difference at around 2400 to 2600 RPM, after Jan's tune I gained an approximate 20 lbs of tq. more at the tip, also, the 2nd run, again after Jan's tune, the pull was not pushed higher than the 7100 rpm as shown in the chart, my car revs up to 7300 all the time and had we done that I believe we could have gotten better numbers:

You need some longer lug bolts first! Wanna keep you safe, after all.

I'm planning on it. Not driving the car too hard, being careful for now.

Maybe not being able to really push it hard because of the tires rubbing is a blessing in disguise. We talk about "driving the wheels off it", but, uh... not literally.

MiniMania has longer lug bolts available in varying lengths if you don't want to do studs:

Well considering this is my thread you are welcomed to throw your $.02 around here if you wanted to.

So go for it.

And thank you for wishing me good luck. Not sure why I would need it though since my car is running much safer and healthier than before.

Let's keep any non-constructive criticism to ourselves.

Why does it say "flywheel torque and "flywheel hp" at the top of the chart?

I believe it is because the dyno is taking the number that it is getting from the wheels and then compensating for the drivetrain losses, thus getting you that graph.

Heee! Well, ya know... it's the unconstructive unconstructive constructive criticism that we dont need. The unconstructive constructive criticism and constructive criticism is fine, as is the constructive and unconstructive uncritical criticism. What was starting here was the critically unconstructive criticism, which is even worse.

You know the scene in "Dr. Strangelove..." where Slim Pickens is riding the bomb down and whooping and hollering? It was kinda like that when Sharo got back to the shop.
