Re: Head Games: pushing coolant and then...

"Indeed, at about $100,000, nothing can touch the M6 in terms of all-out performance and four-seat capability" -Edmunds.com

Heh, well I was planning on taking it easy on the car but an opportunity to play with an M6 arose today and I decided it was ready. I have turned the boost back up to 29 peak, and left the timing down 4-5* from my E85 tune I was on before. AFR's in the mid 11's.

The guy in the M6 was shocked how I stayed so close to him (no honk, he kept just getting the jump....closed course, of course ). Needless to say the car is running like a freaking top. I had just tested out some 8000rpm pulls to see how it took it, and it took it like a champ. Power is still falling off up top, but I think it feels better than it did before, which was my goal. A little timing and then a trip to the dyno and I'll know for sure.

Also, I got video of the Idle. These are the exact settings I had on from my HKS 280's. In the vid it starts idling a bit high, then falls down to ~900-950 rpms. Def needs some tweaking, but you get the idea!



Also, finished up the quasi-wire tuck last night. No more wires going over the top of the valvecover except for the spark stuff







Next up, winter wheels, snow tires, and a bishin undertray
