So you know how i said i could only get 185 g/s out of my car... i decided to bounce it off the rev limiter... and hit a max of 218g/s. Apparently i was relying on the stock tach too much. it showed about 9800 rpm, and the logs show a max of 8970. oh happy day. oh yeah, i also have closed loop until {about} 108 mph now :D great for when i wake up late for work.

My Tach is off about that much as well.

A WOT log to redline takes my tach almost to 10,000 rpm while the cobb ap is only reporting 9000rpm

My 4500rpm cruise log looks like I'm almost doing 5k rpm

The only spot where its close is at 1500 rpm

After that each 500 rpm increment shows a very noticeable offset between the two systems (OEM Tach vs. Cobb)

Jeff says this problem is very common ..... maybe not quite as much as ours but its nothing he hasn't seen before.

I'm interested to know this too.
All the seminars before were held on nights I worked (I work night shifts), but now I'm on weekends until June so I can attend one if you decide to hold another.

Great...
I stay away from the forums nowadays, so I'm not aware of the current situations.
Oh well...
