Well the only difference from last week was a new FMS 70mm TB, and the lack of a check eng light.It turned itself off on bradshaw! like a miracle cuz the damn thing has been on for over a month. I did not get my densecharger in time...UPS dropped it off a few minutes after I left!

I dont have my slips on me so I'll edit later

13.78@100.6 2.09 60 ft

After that it went downhill 13.9, 14.0, 13.9, 14.0, 13.8, 14.1, 14.1,
The car was wayyy inconsistent last night, and so were my reaction times.

Good job Carlo!

Hey man I gotta ask, did you reset the EEC after you installed the throttle body? (by reste I mean disconnest the battery for a while)

It takes a long time for your cars computer to recognize changes in the intake track if you don't do this.

Time for that densecharger!

at least on my car, when I was having C.E.L. problems, I could just turn the car off and it wouldn't pull timing and add fuel like the computer normally does to 'limp home'. I can get the light to go off for at least 5 minutes after the car is turned on (usually), plenty of time for a pass down the 1320, lol. don't know if this works EEC-V, but it does EEC-IV, good runs btw.

I did not pull off the battery cable,I installed it at the track and I didn't want to chance the CE light coming back on! I took it for a good testdrive which I got a receipt for

You got a ticket? I thought the CHP at the Shell station was gonna go after you when you rev'd right before you turned in.
