Baseline

Well on collecting the LC-1 today, I managed to do a few 0-60 runs with the g-tech.

2 x 6.52sec runs and a single 6.70sec run. The plan will be to do 3 runs and drop the worst one. So lets call the first baseline run an average of 6.52 sec.

Next mod will be to bypass the TB and remove the engine cover. I saw a dyno showing basically 6 bhp and 7 ft/lb gain from the TB mod. We will see.

A fellow pistonhead has an old O2 sensor for me so Ill post him a fiver to send it back to me.
Im not sure what a stock R8 is meant to do, but the Wanali or whatever tyres at full road pressure probably dont help, nor will the traction control, which I forgot to turn off. Never mind, as long as I do all the rest the same it should at least give a "relative" idea of performance.

Chasing EFILIVE for their scanner as its just gone 10 days. Hopefully its not far away.
