Thanks.

Pat
CARB tune was not developed with the latest EcuTek software so I don't believe it will have those features involved in the tune. Keep in mind CARB tune gets locked after it gets approved, which was a little over a year ago before all those RaceRom features were offered.

Just to get you an idea of how refined the tune is, it was tested below sea level in 120ºF ambient to 0ºF ambient in the Rocky Mountains and stress tested in those conditions.

It works just fine on 93 octane.

In our testing, even 1 gallon of 100 mixed with a full tank of 91 (~slightly under 92 octane) is enough to be able to redline with the smaller pulley.

Just installed the kit, but I made the mistake of putting my 215 snow tires on at the same time. The thing is a BURNOUT MACHINE even when you don't want it to lol. I'm tempted to put on my 265 summer tires again just to try out the new power, but it's supposed to snow this week.

SoCal finally got some good rain the past few days and it made driving my FRS with this kit a little scary sometimes, even with traction control on!

Don't know how you guys and gals do it in the snow...

Hah Mike,


I made the trip to Riverside last night on those, and that's what I run on a daily basis. 215 partially flooded most of the way and I think I might've had a few small heart attacks.

I fail to see how driving below typical highway speed, in the rain, on a tire that's designed for use in wet weather, is anything to be proud of.

We're from California, where 1/4" of rain is terrifying, ya hear?

Fair enough. I've done 40 mph in snow deep enough that it was coming over the hood of my car. It wasn't really scary though. Subaru 2.5i with goodyear winter tires on it. That thing would pass Jeeps that got stuck.

The only scary part was when the diffs would start throwing the power around and actually found grip. When you're going down the road sideways, quite happily I might add, and then all of a sudden you're going straight toward the ditch, it can cause some pucker moments.
