Lets get this strait, Sal's tune didn't take my motor out, I did...... and made a damn fine pass doing so. I put that stock block into the low low 12's many times over on 15# of boost and many many more 7.60's for a year or two before I jacked it up even more running 7.50's and 7.40's heading for mid 11's on boost only. Not to mention I raced it almost every weekend for 2 years that it didn't rain.

Noone, I didn't need too. My old 15# ET is faster than anyone around here with a Eaton Lightning was and still holds now.

Hell yeah, if I had an Amazon tune I'd probably still have my motor, but id be stuck running 8.50's and 13's on a 100 shot of gas and 19# of boost.

Thats impressive, who tuned it?

If theres one thing I can't stand, its watching other people get screwed, its a pet peeve of mine......And when I see people complaining about their track times and I look in their mod list and see Amazon..... It becomes my civic duty to explain to them why their so slow.

If thats the case, you should advise them to stay with the stock tune.

After what I had seen and heard, it would have been a waste of gas money.

Just tell people the truth, you can't tune a Lightning to run a number at the track, but you can tune a pullied Lightning to run the same number as it did when it was stock and make the tranny sound like it has a midget with a jack hammer in it.
