Ok...first notes:
Tuning.
Idle was about the same AF - with similar vacuum of around 18"
Cruise needed to be leaned out one step on the rods
Primaries power stage needing leaning one step on the rods
Secondary jets needed leaning one or two stages - will depend on weather (082 to .080/.077)
Pump shot backed off to second hole indicates most constant mixture at launch on gauge
Observations
Most obvious was the much smoother idle...even the wife commented that it sounded less 'spitty'
Second is that the 'light switch' issue where it suddenly came on at around 2500 with the Modman has disappeared completely - there is a completely smooth torque curve from idle to 6800rpm
Car is noticeably quicker when transitioning from cruise to WOT in top gear - the change in diff ratio obviously helps...but again it feels like it comes 'on song' straight away...no 'sogginess' or lag.
The induction noise sounds completely different....and SO MUCH BETTER:evil3: - sounds much more like the old Thermoquad 'roar'..
I wont have any track results for a few mths.....but Im completely confident my 60 ft times will be better as it responds so much more sharply than before. :happy1:
