You guys kill me... That wrap is expensive for sure. It added $100 to the cost of the REVi.

lolz - who said I was doing it for effectiveness? - it's eye candy bling man, come on. Call like you see it, wait, you just did. One thing for sure, my temps w/o the ram duct are 5 over the ambient sensor.

...I'm just sayin'

Call me crazy, but I have decided to tune my car finally.

I will continue with my E-Tune with Jeff (basically starting over), but I am also making my own ATR Tune using Kane's Baseline, and finally, I will get on Surgeline's four wheel Mustang chassis dyno in Portland for their dyno tune as well. So, you might say that I will have my very own tune shootout at the Nemesis8 Corral...

I e-mailed the MM to see if he would like to come to Portland for a dyno tune day at Surgeline. If I get positive feedback from Jeff, then I will start the arrangements.

Anybody interested? When I hear back from Jeff, I will start a new thread with the info.

Depends when it is. If I get enough miles on the new build and he has an extra AP for me to purchase then I'm in.
