Log says 110, I guess you just stayed in it longer? And you only got one run? That would stink.

Is your TPS sensor OK? Remove the black box under the gas pedal. Get that throttle to 100%.

Timing looks good. O2s look good. I can see whre you missed the gear :) How are EGTs?

Looks like you should try to lean it out 1-2% and do some logging. You could eek out some more power probably. Also, shift sooner. Looks like you are shifting around 7K. No need to go that high. Shift around 6500, you'll probably go faster. Also, work on that launch. Figure for every .1 you can shave off of your launch, you will run .2 faster in the end. Also, don;t miss the gears! Hahah... j/k. You got a good start though for tuning.

when you going to hit the dyno for some tuning?
 
yeah im never sure where the track ends so i hold into it for a bit longer.. and I got 2 runs but I didnt log the 2nd one as I was frustrated.. I should have as I did better on that one, a 13.9 versus this crap 14.3..

the TPS should be fine, I just never removed that little box so you call it behind the pedal.. im lazy like that.. ill get to it :) is there really a big difference between 98.6 and 100?

the EGTs are right below 900 at WOT and im at -25% across the band right now..

you really think I should shift sooner?? according to the dyno it looks like I was making power all the way up to 7600.. and thats where I was shifting, around 7500..

Im gonna take my car to Turbo XS soon, I have a friend who is going to be working there.. So im gonna let them tune the car
 
The difference between 98 and 100 is minimal, but every little bit counts.

From your dyno sheet, it looks like it levels off and the same power goes to 7500. I think shifting sooner is something to try. With my T28, the car felt good to 7500 so I went that far and ran 13.5@98. When I started shifting at 6500-6800, I instantly ran a 13.3@100. This was pre-FMIC. Most people I know shift at 6500 or so and say that the car feels beiter, and runs better, when doing so. Every car is different though. Might work, might not... worth a try at the track to see for sure.
