It took about a month to get the tune right but it was worth the wait. The first dyno pull was done at the usual shop i go to with temps in the high 70's. The 2nd dyno sheet was when he cleaned up the fuel a little and it was 55 degrees with extremely low humidity. He took even more fuel away on sunday and pulled a few degrees of timing squeezing about 14 more hp out the engine.

The pistons are great so far and there really isnt anything special about prepping the block for the Mahle pistons because of the grafal anti-friction coating that's applied to each piston skirt. I'm actually down on HP because I bought the lower compression 9:1 pistons. Most likely you have the 10:1 pistons so you should like yours even more. I wanted a really safe setup thats why I went with the 9:1's. The amount of torque on tap is also way better than I ever expected. Good luck with yours!
Looks good how do you like the P28 ecu does anything change when you use this ECU becides no more OBD2. Also got a web link for the crome management. thanks
