Hey guys,
I'm still new to the SHO world. I bought an sct tuner from Torrie. Had great luck with it so far! What I am running right now is a 93 octane tune for 3 bar map sensor, colder plugs gapped at 30, and a K&N filter in stock air box.
I went to the dragstrip 2 weeks ago, with just the 93 octane tune (didnt have the 3 bar yet) and ran a 13.51 @ 106. Not awful considering I have the Ford edge 22's that weigh a metric ton. Last week I did the 3 bar tune, car feels faster but for some reason when I took it to the track Sat night, I could barely break 100mph in the 1/4. I figured it would knock my e/t down a little not actually make it slower. Any ideas?

Bunch of things to consider: track conditions, DA, total vehicle weight, etc. What was your 60' time?

You really should put a colder tstat in and have the tune adjusted for it. An Airaid intake will also be in your favor compared to the K&N for faster times (0.2 seconds or more in the 1/4). Ask Airaid to send you a taller D seal, not the one they normally ship with their unit.

I would send a datalog back to Torrie to see what needs to be improved. He'll know right away :)

6 MPH is huge at the drag strip. You are definately down on power.
