Ed from Virginia speed is in the area for the week tuning a bunch of LS1 cars and a couple LT1s.... I decided to have him dyno tune mine hopefully on saturday so I'll post the results when it happens.

He seems to travel around to different shops, has anyone else had him dyno their car?

Ugh, well the dyno tune was a bust... I just can't seem to get a break with this car haha. First we discovered that one cylinder wasn't firing because of a wiring issue with the injector circut.. I have to look into this and check the connection possibly buy a pigtail/connector and put it in. We decided to run it anywase and see what happens, well started out took it up to 5600 rpms in 4th and the car immediatly died after this. At this point with just a mail order tune on it, and #1 injector not working properly the car made 325hp/336tq

decent numbers for what was going on with the car... .but the reason the car immediatly died after the first run was because of the damn optispark. We checked a few things and it seems to be that the opti more than likely blew the rotor. So once again I'll be digging into that mess which is to replace the optispark.
