Tq tune outperforms race tune at the 1/8 mile track.


I took my car to the 1/8 mile track today. The DA was around 3800' My first two runs I had Doug's 91 race tune. My times were:
60' 2.371
E.T 9.347
MPH 80.411
Sea level corrected: 8.9132 at 84.376

Next run: 60' 2.257
E.T 9.297
MPH: 78.007
corrected: 8.8657 at 82 MPH

Here are my times with the tq tune:
Best time: 60' 1.980
E.T 8.970
MPH: 80.885
corrected: 8.553 at 84.9 MPH

Next run: 60' 2.203
E.T 9.188
MPH: 80.231
corrected: 8.761 at 84.2 MPH

That would be interesting. My money would be on the race tune since it has more tq above 3,000 RPMs, but you never know. If the ass dyno was any indicator, I thought the race tune was going to be faster.

I talked to Alex at Bamachips and he said because of the throttle response the race tune should have been faster.
