I grew up racing dirt bikes and shifter karts so I can appreciate that but in my old age, dyno tuning for 93 and E85 is about as far as I go. So my question lies within your lap times. I'm sure you frequent a local track and I know you started tracking the car when it was almost new. Where were your lap times then and where are they now after FI, suspension, etc? Just curious to see the improvement in time on a track in comparison to the mods you have completed. If you have another thread discussing that already, link me up.

Thanks again,

Youre very welcome, I do the testing for myself, but know its a community service too.

Even tuning for 93 or e85, what we do to say we're done on a dyno and what we learn on the track after many logs allows my tuner to build a file for me(and likely you and other customers) thats made using real world data, in a far from ideal set of conditions vs a dyno room.

Up till this point it has run like a watch, so I didnt have this issue with the my lower power levels, so each time I go up in power I try to track in between, for my own benefit,again.

As I dont have the baselines you want on hand, what we will do is take my wifes car which is a bone stock BRZ with a TRD drop in, vs mine 'well built' on a day I'm renting a transponder(I dont when I am just tuning,testing and logging) I want to share that data too!
