The TA was all show and no go.

The Eco was the more impressive.

yea, that surprised me. But the funny part was no one took a second look at my truck because it was so quiet, even my wife was like, what the hell. Oh well, #ecoboostproblems.

How many passes did you make? Did your times get better with each pass as you got your launch dialed in?

Copy that! I'm MPT tuned now, LOL. so I'm sure the SSI mafia will be digging on you. Some reason it always turns out that way. I do have meth but its still in the box. Trying to decide if I want to buy another tank or use my w-w tank.

I don't know for sure maybe 7 passes in 3 hours? I can look for exact times when I get home. Yea once I got the launch down the times started dropping. I think the slowest I went that day was my first time 13.5. It was hard to get the rpms right where I wanted them and keep on eye on the tree. I just started waiting til the other lane went before I launched.

I'm curious how ur mpt tune runs , I've only had SSI tunes and they have all been exactly what I wanted. I didnt even have to switch the tune when i got to the track. I'm not too caught up in the mafia, lol. I'm pretty low key. Even when I told Shawn about my time, he was like, " who is this?" Lol. U should hook the meth up. I'm curious to see what it will do.

Great runs!

Also, there is no "mafia" that phrase left with a certain individual. Let's leave it at that.
