Default 3/4 throttle mod testing revisted on 3-.. Looks pretty worthless to me...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/44443/giac_3-_three_quarter_throttle_mod-_adj.jpg"></center><p>Ran back to back 2nd gear pulls on my GIAC 3-. HP tracks almost indentical up to 6K RPMs where 3/4 mod falls off. Not enough throttle? When I ran this before on my 2+ car (see link), had some fall-off at high end, but ran slightly better at low RPM.

I saw this myself but it was only because the tune was lousy and it was dumping fuel.

Default What about the guy that dynoed 20 ft/lbs more with the 3/4 mod?

I don't have a stopper but my car is noticably faster with the pedal 80% instead of all the way down

That was back in late 2001 IIRC. Maybe newer SW rev's has addressed this?
