Default Gotts mod install with a bit of data

So today I finally had time to do my gotts mod so I took a few numbers before and after to compare to. First thing was intake air temperature. Nothing big but it did drop 3 degrees (numbers taken at 60mph on same road,10 minutes between runs). The biggest change was the MAF reading at full throttle. Of course no change as you would expect at idle but full throttle the change was from 204 gps (grams per second) before to 228 gps afterwards. Also noticed it cut my 0-60 time by almost half a second. Haven't been able to do a 1/4 mile run yet but when I do I'll post the results. All results taken with a gryphon cs on tow mode. Gonna take them on level 3 to see how it changes.

I'm very interested in your findings on this one!

Havens drove enough to see with the gotts mod. Got about 1mpg with the programmer. That will also probably be up tomorrow after the drove back and forth to work tonight.

I would let the drive cycle reset itself first before attempting to get accurate mpg change. The first 100 miles or so the ECU will still be learning the trims so it isn't a good time to accurately check changes.

This is what I like to see. An easy mod, with evidence that it's actually effective. Great work! Definitely glad I did this mod, too.

Yeah no noticeable difference as of yet from just the gotts. I will keep an eye on it though and see what it shows.

Level 3 on the programmer also didn't show much of an improvement on air flow. Still peaking around 228gps on full throttle in the high side of the revs. Silencers comin off the intake next. My days off I tend to get bored and always end up in the garage tinkerin on somethin.
