If any of U TPI guys that are going to Dyno, have been thinking about getting Mike to do some chip tuning, now is the time, especially if we can get Mike out there to actually tune and Dyno at the same time.

If U need to contact Mike-- 1bad91Z --PM him!

nevermind, reading helps. so the wide-band takes an extra O2 bung? its not one of the slip-in styles?

The way I've seen most Dynojet graphs is you have HP and TQ on the main graph plotted by RPM, below that is a secondary graph that just shows AFR against RPM.

Would it be benificial to monitor the fuel pressure when doing a run? I've been thinking about buying an adjustable fuel pressue regulator. If the pressure dipped during a run, would that mean you would want to bump it up a little?

only if you get tuning to go along with it. If the pressure drops the ECM is going to see a lean condition and open up the pulse width of the injectors to compensate.

so in other words, its not really that beneficial

I am planning on making it, however I will have to show up about mid way through.

I get off at 4:00, so I should be down there around 5:00.

Hopefully you guys are still running, but considering the amount of cars that will be there, I am fairly positive we will be there all night.. lol.
