Why would you put a super lean tune back in your car, any leaks you have would make a rich condition not lean
No 2 cars are the same so to say the tune fs has is right over the one done on the dyno is insane
And the comment about the filter located where it is is very correct reguardless of the speed the car is moving you ARE sucking in heated air . where do you think the air from the Raid is going , and from the engine and trans , it all gets caught under the hood with the cooler incoming air , it isnt like you are pulling in 85 deg air on a 85 deg day
Take that with all the other hoses ON TOP of the engine where the heat is even worse and ill bet on a 85 deg day with doing 2 to 3 hard pulls back to back you will see 110 to 130 air inlet temp , now when this happens the ECU sees the air intake charge temp and allowes for that in the timing so there is no deto , the problem is at those AIT`s the ECU will pull 18 to 24 Deg of timing , the pulled timing with the super heated AIT will take your power to about 120 at the wheels thats about where you would be with a just a few boltons
You will get a better idea what im talking about when it gets colder or a lot hotter where you are
