Vortech Mach 1

well me and Eric finished with the T-trim install about 2 weeks ago and i had been waitin on Doug to get my tune done.

Doug worked me in this past Saturday and we tuned the car with a solid 10 pounds of boost. We never took it to redline. he was worried it wouldnt hold it so we kept it mild. its got more in it.

it did 451/419 and it was HOT!!! i think it was about 92 degress outside when i pulled on the rollers.

a/f was steady all the way across and only had spark blowout on one pull. Doug fixed that tho.

only issue im havin now is that the car has a rough idle to it. Doug seems to think it deals with the IAC plate i have in to keep the RPMs from hangin...but i have ready that most people leave them in with the s/c. im gonna yank it out this week and see if it helps.

when im out cruisin and im let off goin down a hill or somethin, the car will kinda surge and buck very slightly until i get back in the throttle....

all in all im happy with it...Doug wants the car back in the winter time to get some better numbers since it was so hot. i just want to get the idle issue dealt with and everything else should be straight. Thanks to Eric for all the help. im gonna pay for it when we start back on the red truck...

time for more mods..any suggestions???
