11.5:1 and 12:1 are fucking pretty close man. 14:1 is lean yes all cars go super rich at WOT especially from the factory. 11.5:1-12:1 is optimum any more and raw fuel is running out your tail pipe at low to mid rpm's.

I Need You To Tune My Car Very Badly
Hey man... sorry i've been incredibly busy this summer with my Cavy build and doing our 607 Car show as well as the Cobalt. I just haven't had any free time this summer to do much side work at all Things have finally started to slow down though so we could probably get something worked out. How far are you from NYIRP in Leicester? I know Mike has taken his bike there a couple times now...

Please tell me you don't tune any cars. The difference between MID 11s and LOW 12s is quite a bit even though the math says differently.

Not sure what to tell you. Most tuners I talk to stick with MID 11s and state the gains aren't worth it. Most of my friends with modified cars (ranging from various platforms) stay right away from 12.X anything especially on pump gas. I'd agree that it's more forgiving if you are runnin higher octane but don't see the reason to take that risk.

I've been really busy, I still have pics from the last SCCA event at ACC to process. I'll try to get a few more up when I get home from work today.

Rochester is only about an hour or so from me so that would definately work out.

The install doesn't take too long at all... I think I did my stage 5 in about 2 hours... however I did get a new snouth which already had the quick change hub installed... You will def want a pulley pulley for that part of the deal. The tune is pretty simple... depending on which injectors you are going to go with I have a few tunes i've done for other guys that will get us close.

As far as the aem meth kit goes I personally wouldn't do it... I think its a bit overpriced for what you're getting. I'd go with a Devilsown progressive kit on the car if you wanna run meth. I've used them on my Cav and now the Cobalt and love them. Hope that helps man!

Ok, so I'm having some trouble trying to find picture that are not blurry.

Slow shutter speed+Byron's 900lb spring rate=blurry

I do have a couple more tho.

I prefer snow but make sure the kit you get is progressive.
