Just wanted to see what kind of 1/4 mile times you guys are running? Post what your time is along with your mods. Just trying to get an idea if i will be able to hang with my brothers fiesta st. I have ddm intake, mp fab drs mount, tune, and borla exhaust but have yet to take it to the track.

Whitewmoke,
I thinks it's great you worked so well with jerry.
My sonic with the Diablo intune tuner is going into limp home mode on my third BNR tune. I was told the Diablo inTune doesn't log boost? Not sure how it can be tuned then. I've taken off all BNR tunes and flashed back to stock to avoid blowing up my engine. Not sure what else to do.

Did you send jerry a log, I'm sure he will fix it

Yes, Ive sent logs. Email and support system.
I don't want to bash but rather discuss since you seem up on the BNR tunes. The last reply I got was a tune saying the inTune does not log boost and to try this new file. That one seems to be worst.
I have reverted back to the very first BNR tune I received last year. It only goes to about 17 to 18 lbs boost max.. but it doesn't go into limp home mode. It's a horrible feeling getting on the freeway and going to 3-5 lbs max.
Perhaps the inTune is no good and I need to get the EFILive for proper logging/tuning ?

Well I would definitely think about the efi live, it is 100% monitor able and changeable, I have had dozens of tunes from jerry and never even so much as a cel with a code, those other types of tunes are limited as to how much jerry can change and adjust and look at to see what's going on

Whitesmoke, do you have the GTX and have it installed? Curious to get your thoughts on it. I have received mine, but I'm having an issue with my AutoCal (which Jerry is already helping me sort out) so I haven't installed yet.

Do you mind if I post a side by side of my 1/4 mile (mods in sig) vs yours?
Yours is the first gtx14 slip I've seen. It's interesting to see where the turbo is apparently faster than stock. Do you have a stock turbo slip to compare?

I have hundreds of time slips, we race this car weekly for 2 years now. Last year it was running 15.0s 14.90s on a stock turbo 104 octane race tune but that was in 50 degree weather. In the conditions we had last week the best it would do was 15.20s. And that 14.74 was on the first 93 gtx base tune we put in the car, we didn't get to do much more because it rained. Also we used a 5000 shift tune in the Trans, the GTX makes more power through the entire rpm range and we haven't even tried it up to 6000 yet where it should make even more power. We are confident it will go close to 14.0 in nice air with a race tune. And that's full weight, 3070 lbs, that's heavy, this car is a lot heavier than an Ls or Ltz. Once we get done I will pull some weight out and should go 13s

That's cool. I got a 15.6, basically 15.7 out of my car on 93. Haven't really doodled around with the tune any in the upper RPM since going to e85 and new injectors, so haven't felt the need to re-run. This is with a 6 speed, too. I'm sure the auto helps at least some for your car. I'd love to see low 15s out of mine.

WhiteSmoke, Dubb_RS,
Do you guys have the bypass solenoid bypassed? The intake ported?
So jealous.
What I've done is go back to my BNR tune from last year..the very first one. This has been good...no scary limp home mode when I need to get out of the way of an 18 wheeler..

No bypass, that's stupid thing to do, if yours is bypassed that might be why you are going limp, we have run 23 lb boost on mine, never ever went limp

Thanks no.. I do not have the solenoid bypassed or the intake ported.. No mods other than a K&N drop in air filter and the ZZP catback. Figured I would ask if you guys have those.

Well you might have a sensor somewhere that is misreading, that car should not go limp

No, Jerry got back to me and set me in order. I'm doing good now. If I want any additional power I'll need to look into EFILive. That seems to be what he knows best.
That said..when oh when can we get an air scoop setup like you have ?
