A FP Black, 3" exhaust that's about 2.5 ft long. e85, fic 2150s, 272 crower, stock crank, eagle/mahle, Built head(STM) 1mm OS valves, beehives..........i honestly forget a lot but the tranny is fully built as well. auto awd, roadsurge shifter.
Pumped so much $ into it and then sorta lost interest. You ever get that feeling? That's why i haven't been on here much in the last year or so.
Anyway, yea i went with SD and I never truly dialed it in perfectly. I guess at this age I don't feel comfortable doing pulls up to 100mph on public roads! haha.
In the spring i may take her up to Boostin Performance on a trailer and let them have at it for a couple hours on their awd dyno.

My favorite thing about sd isn't about what power level, I'm comfortable where I'm at, but for the benefit of being able to drive my car in the unfortunate event of a blown IC coupler or other boost leak. I can still get home or to where I am going, I just don't have boost. Nobody want's or expects these things but they will and do happen. Accidentally hit a small animal in the road at night and kill your IC, you still can get home or on to the destination. Blow your turbo? You will still be able to drive. I have had these things happen and that is the nice thing about speed density. You can still get home.
Isn't a drop in the weather effect the tune? I've read some guys can make it up the street without the car hiccuping in 10-15 degree drop... any truth to that?
Edit I meant to say" can't make it up the street"
