Can you back off the timing a bit to reduce knock? (I know, it would need to be reflashed for that particular trick....)

Because of the custom tune, it would be tough. I would have to pay for a custom tune for the reduced timing I think, so it doesn't quite balance out yet for me.

I do, but I would have to pay again for a lower octane tune I think. It's been long enough now that I wouldn't expect any free revisions.
​​​​​​Its just money, which is a little short right now.

Who did you get your tune from? Wouldn't hurt to ask.

If I have my information right if it's thru FRP he gives a couple of revisions to get the tunes right and that is it.

If it's HemiFever he use to give you unlimited tunes for life but I don't know if that still holds true.

I did use FRP, and as Rick said, it's limited. Custom tuning is good for 10 revisions or 1 year. In my case he was gracious enough to give me about 14 revisions trying to get it all smoothed out, and that was 4 years ago, so I have both time and counts against me.
Maybe it's time to do heads and a cam and really wreck my milage.

Could your fuel sync be off? And I'd contact Ryan and see how much he wants for a couple of retunes.

When a second mortgage is needed, people get panicked one way or another, but that goes away after a while after the person who has two mortgages finds a good credit attorney. I was the lucky one who had three mortgages, one of which I have already paid off in full and am now ready to pay off the other loans I have. I can rely on Mortgage Broker Cambridge for help and advice. It is for this reason that I no longer worry about my payments or my mortgage. I have complete confidence in this company

Enjoyed reading this thread today. Encourages me to keep moving forward on my 408 project I have going.

Maybe I will start a build thread as my build has been going on and evolving for a year now.
