After dozens of runs, I finally feel like I have my Greddy EBC dialed in pretty well. I checked over as much of the install as I could, and made change after change with the settings, slowly closing in on what I feel is the best I can get with it, without spiking. In a drizzling rain, my final three runs, at the same settings, were awesome! Out on a very desolate road, in the middle of turkey raising country, I launched with great hooks (tires a little warm by then), winding out each of the first three gears, with wonderful turbo surges and no spiking. Slapping into 4th at 90+ was wicked! 5th came right after that in order to keep sane speed and not work the engine too hard, otherwise I'd be topping 125+....not too good for this particular road and the conditions. Anyway, the only trouble now, is that I still spike sometimes when I floor it in 4th gear from a 60 mph roll. I may be able to figure a way to stop that by using the "lo" and "hi" settings in conjunction....we'll save that for another day though. It feels good to be able to rocket in the Z again. Proof that I can, to me, is that my stuffed animal mascot, the "Hammytown Pig" that's seated behind my passenger seat, will roll backwards into the trunk space when I really nail it! I rolled that pig good today :)
