[hensleyt]

My TT chip is right out of the box untouched ,base fuel set @43 Eric locked my convertor at WOT 3ed gear .I'm no tuner ,plugs are right on .Alky setting as per Razor instructions no KR and 02s 720.

I think you need to put this race on hold for a while....

Agree. I'm taking notes and printing things off. Hopefully i'll be up to par by then. If not, there's always another day.

Eric locks my convertor on my TT Alky chip at 85 mph, no switch needed .I went from 12.2 @111 to 11.88 @115 @ 24lb boost

Do you run this chip with everyday driving. Or only on track days.

 

[griffgoody]

You better have some good tuning skills. You will need to run it as hard as it will go and put in a switch so you can lock the converter at WOT in 3rd. what part # is the injector?

The part numbers I found on the Inj are: 3429--621031--D3181AA. And also, looked at my Chip. Maybe you are someone might know what kinda Chip this is. RN -PBSTR - 42.5 Tks John

Yes all the time AC on to town are to the race track 20mpg till I get to the track .So tame my wife drives it from time to time.
I use a turbo TurboSmart E-boost Street ,boost set at 17psi for the street 24psi for the track .I have drove it around on the street set at 24psi.
24 to 25 is where Eric set my Alky chip with the stock solenoid,I just wanted a little better control of the boost.

If your going to run less boost later have him burn another chip. You should never be needing to add a bunch of fuel. If the settings are lost and you don't notice you will lean it out

 

[hensleyt]

I do have two chips one W/O Alky no TCC lock,one W/Alky with TCC lockup @ 85.It runs good with the Alky chip on the street @17psi I have never touched the Alky chip.
I seldom go WOT on the street.And in 500 miles the plugs good with the Alky chip.

You need to find someone local to help you with this or you are going to lose really bad and hurt your engine at the same time
