Steve is on it. From what I understand so far, the RPM when crossing the 1/8th mile mark, the tire height, and the MPH are needed to figure the proper gear for my current set up.
It will be some time before I run at the strip again. The trutrac and gears need a 500 mile break in, and I drive about 4 miles each day. So probably fall of this year before I can run again.
Steve will get it right, of that I am sure. I'll just need to record a pass after the initial tune, send it to him, and he will make any necessary changes.
I don't know much at all about tuning but I do know this. A good tuner like Steve will get your car within 95-98% of best possible results with a handheld vs. what he would get on a dyno.
The dyno is basically a stationary street, where a tuner can see what is going on. With the SCTX4, the tuner needs data because that is the only way they can see what is going on after adjustments are made. It just takes some patience and realization that without data, he can't improve what the car is doing.
When this pollen subsides, I need to bring the Rupes up to your house and get that metal flake popping in your paint!
