I notice you have 3.4 pulley system... and then 3.2 pulley... is that because you changed your pulley size later?

Also.. what is "autotap"?

Yes, once the rockers were in it allowed the engine to breathe better and allow me to step down in pulley size resulting in more boost. I'm restricted at the moment though by my exhaust so im not seeing much power gain from it yet.

An autotap is a software/hardware package that allows my laptop to monitor all the sensors from the drivetrain and clear DTC'* if they happen. it shows me all the things the PCM is controlling and what their values are.

Nice video, I too like watching the rims. That'* VEY COOL that your going to dyno each mod along the way with Intense in your corner. You lucky, lucky lucky dog!!!1 Also happy that for the most part I'm planning on all the same things with in 3 months, ready for track season. Before the your rockers where we were close in mods, I know how you feel about the Tourque steer. I can't beleive going many more mods before a LSD is needed for saftey reasons, Almost been into the ditch or guard raill more than once. I want that power to the ground. I take it your getting an Intense LSD than, too. Lucky, lucky dog!

You said autotap allows you to monitor the stuff the PCM is controlling... does it let you modify the PCM? Either hard programmed or on the fly?

Autotap does NOT let you change anything other than re-set codes that might come up, It does let you see everything the PCM is doing and how your car is reading. Big tuning advantage is looking at the O2 readings that will dtermine if you need to be running leaner or richer. Also seeing how much KR your getting and what the timing advance is doing. Getting these optimal will definitly add some extra HP.

Thats my understanding too Jim,, the 300 number is more of a calculated guess it could be higher than that?
