10s??? The race for mid 9s is on now.
You're racing yourself then, I'm quitting at 10.x. :D

Well, I got it fully warmed up last night. No oil or coolant leaks! I was having issues with the idle though. Shane is hooking me up with a new map and the car is going on the dyno Wed. I have a wideband, so pump should be set up pretty good. We will probably make a few pump gas pulls then go to C16.

There isn't a hood or bumper cover on it. The wheels need to go back on, then it is ready to take for a spin! The roomies car is in the way though, so we have to push that out of the way first. She should be on the road tonight!!

Awesome. But this comment worries me...

You're safe with just tossing in a map (yes, I know, it's from Shane) rather than massaging yours from scratch?

I am hoping for 11's but would be satisfied with 12's on my FWD.

Shane is going to massage Nash's map for me. The injectors are slightly different (850's vs. my 950's) and Nash has a 5 bar MAP vs. my 3.5 bar. Other than that they should be very similar except for my head and cams.

Understood, makes sense now, and will save a lot of time. I'm still torn between AEM and DSMlink myself, but that's a whole other topic. Hope to see your car around sometime before snow falls.

Well, even Nash's is a totally untuned guess at a basemap. But it's hopefully something with the basics setup for his specific map sensor, injector size, and motor size that the car will start on and then he can start getting it close enough with his wideband.

Uhh, you haven't seen Shane's magic on the keyboard yet. Besides, you can switch back in about 30 seconds. :D

Well, the startup is decent on it, starts in 4-5 cranks. Idle is pretty solid at 1100 RPM (big cams). I need to get my hood and front bumper cover on to drive it more!

The thing is a bit of a handful though. That twin disk bites pretty hard! Add that with almost no torque from the ported head, big cams and oversized valves, and it doesn't like slow speeds at all. I also have a welded viscous in right now and that isn't helping things either.

Time to get some breakin miles on it and start to do some tuning!
