Why haven't I helped him...we have done what we can with standard tools,
but he's on a budget and Dyno time isn't cheap (you should know that).
We've been working on a different issue on his truck which is more
important right now.
On Joe's engine...we're going to be using 30# injectors and MAP/MAF
modification has been around for a long time. Just because there's
other ways of doing things...doesn't mean that it's wrong (or just not
your way).
What about the "other" 11-second R/T using a SS Box...if his way wrong
in your eyes as well?!? From what I've heard, your truck wasn't running
very well with your tuning "boxes" either.

Bernd, I liken this box to the "flavor of the month". Like all the
band-aid boxes that came before it, will probably not live up to the
billing you give it. Apexi, Split Sec, Roe, all different names
stenciled on boxes that basically do the same thing. How many different
ways are there to tweak a MAP signal?
Now one of these days you'll probably come around with a box that does
something that actually lives up to the hype. Saturday is not likely to
be that day. Partial signal interupts are a waste, IMO. Either remap the
factory PCM or run a full stand alone system.
I hope for Joe's sake it goes well because I know he spent a ton with
you. Bill's 408, also a Speedtweaks build, put down all of 267 rwhp, so
there's your target to hit. Those are fairly similar motors.
BTW, since Bill is just across town from you, why haven't you helped him
with tuning his Apexi box to find the 70 or so HP that he's down? I
would think if you want a resounding testimonial, you've got a potential
one right in your backyard.
Good luck Saturday.
Bob
