2 days ago, we had a Jeep making about 765 rw hp that seemed to run, drive and shift very good while being brutally fast. We wanted more power so we tried running bigger injectors and got another 45 rw hp but it took a lot more time to tune and the tune was not perfect like the 765 rw hp tune was. Then we swap tranny's hoping for a stronger tranny. Then we find out the valve body is no good, so time to swap that out. Then we have to put in new tranny controller, then let it learn. Then once the tranny is shifting good, the air fuel is off and its midnite tonite and the track is closing.
Mr. Murphy once again proves that anything that can go wrong will go wrong. The moral of the story is that when you have a setup that is working pretty well, like we did 2 days ago, dont mess with it.
My guys worked really hard and did all they could to try to get us down the track tonite, but we just ran out of time. Too many last minute changes to sort out.
Monday we will put the smaller injectors back in and re-check the tune. Then we will try to make another pass. If the tranny has issues again, then it comes out and the old one goes back in.
If you are going to make changes you have to do them one at a time and that is the only way to isolate things that dont work or that need attention.
Sorry we were not able to get a full pass in tonite. But we will be back out on the track soon.
