Everyone is so sensitive here

I've switched everything back to map 1 / default settings on JB4 for now.

I'm not launching 20 times a day.

It's been maybe 3x a day for last few days .

DME is going on tomorrow and I'll switch JB4 to map 0, and let DME handle the calibration for a map 6

This stuff is beyond my level of expertise

I wish Jb4 provided a basic user manual / guide with their product and had a telephone number / technicians available to help new users


In any event, I'll get the DME basic 93 octane map

I'll test that out for a little

If I still am not satisfied, then I'll start messing with the fuel mixture to increase the timing for more power


But ideally I simply want a good 93 octane map since that's what I'm using the car for .. I don't intend to frequently mix boostane, ethanol or race gas

Just want to pump and go 95% of the time

With that said .. let's see how the DME performs without any changes in fuel mix and testing (but I really need to read up on everything before doing that)

And then I'll start tinkering w fuel


I appreciate everyone's feedback

Still think the car is a little slow for stock / map 1 on 93 octane .. I get that better fuel will increase power .. but this still doesn't seem to answer my main question: why are the times weak relative to other cars on pump gas w similar mods
