another Rhino tune times



Just thought I would share my new times with a rhino tune. The old tune just felt sluggish and just didnt compare to some cars on here for bolt ons. My mods are just long tube, cold air and tune.

Rhino pretty well picked my car up 2 tenths and 2mph in the eighth. The track I was at wasn't hooking for me very well. The old tunes best pass was a 8.18 at 87mph and that was with a -900 da with no wheel spin at all. Didnt check the da friday night but it was humid. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will try for that 7.9x pass at a better track.

Well the da in Memphis at 8 pm was in between 900 and 1000 above sea level, so you have more left in it with some dry air!

What did you adjust in the tune? Is this a VVT car? I'd love some 8.0s! I might just drive to Cabot! lol

Yes I optimize the vvt settings, as well as spark, fueling, tq mgt, and completely retune the transmission shift firmness, converter lockup, tq mgt, shift points.

No need to come to cabot, Ill be in DFW the 24th-26th, message me if you want to get it dialed in!

And the air he ran this time in was much worse than his previous best was in too. This car will go 7.8-7.9 with a great launch

Yea I could just tell the air was way different than my previous runs. I'm have no doubts it will go 7.90s. You can just tell its a whole different car. I cannot express enough how good rhino is at tuning

Key, did you have a tune before Rhino tweaked your car? Like a mail order or anything?
