Another 1/8 mile run. This track was less sketchy than the other one I posted. Ill be going back here.

With the low MPH you were seeing in the 1/4, I would log 1/4 and the slip to make sure there’s not an issue, but that’s just me

We're back from our cruise and I've got the new list loaded but it's very rainy and Slick here so getting a wide open throttle pull will be difficult. I sent two logs to John unfortunately they're not wide open

Driving around logs won't help your tuner much once the trims are dialed in, just FYI.

Think of it like having to pay $50 per log review, you want to provide good data for that price.

This seems wild, you have some very significant belt wrap. I cant imagine you are getting any belt slip. I run my stock tensioner with a griptec pulley and a belt that's over a year old and I never have seen belt slip. Even back when I was on an IHI running a 2.5 upper with the stick tensioner I didn't see any slip.

Some places charge $100 per log for review. It can be time consuming if you're trying to really dig in to something so definitely don't wanna be sending cruise around logs once the fuel trims are dialed unless you're chasing a specific problem at light throttle or something.

What ever tuner is charging their own customers $100 to view a log, is far too full of themselves!

I don't think most charge the customer for reviewing logs when tuning the car. If you want to send a log to a tuner for review after the fact or whatever I've seen them offer that service and it's usually $100 or something a long those lines. I have people all the time ask me to review their logs and unless we're good friends I don't have time to do that for free anymore. Not that I'd charge $100 but...

My point is don't send driving around logs to your tuner and waste their time unless that's what they ask for.

I agree. I dont want to waste anyones time, or get something for free for that matter. Where Im a travel nurse, track days are far and few between for me, and for what we were trying to diagnose i wasnt sure if a few highway pulls would expose it, and i was told to just get a few hard pulls in.

No worries, wasn't calling you out, just trying to help. I used to do driving around logs too when I got started years ago lol.

I appreciate you speedy. Maybe one day Ill come to Nashville.

On topic: anyone ever rebuilt their BPV or put in a higher torque motor. Gearheads is $650. Just trying to see if theres an alternative
