Shouldn't be a problem. Now get that tune and no worries!

Does the tune improve that much? I am afraid of excessive wheelspin...

Easy kill unless he's got serious mods.

stop bench racing and get to the track. then you wont have to ask what can and cant be beat. fall alseep at the line and a prius can beat you. holeshot the start and you could beat a z06 if he cant shift. every race is different. i havent ever met a single racer who won from the sidelines

If we only had tracks over here. Do not want to travel 5 hrs to race old tuned up volvos... They can be quick but still look like xxxx. So sidelines will do for me.

I raced on the street. No records or officials. My Norton750 dominated until the Kawasaki Z1. Never dropped it or got a ticket. It was fun.. Gary

I'm still trying to figure out what Sweden offers over your Florida address...

We have race tracks, hot women, BBQ and the world's best bourbon.

Sweden has hot blondes and lots of snow. One I'm not allowed to play with, and the other I hate.

FUBU: I think that you should do a ECU tune to make sure that everything is adjusted to your mods. The extra hp is just a plus, most importantly you know that you are not leaning out on the higher rpm range.
