Somebody sent me a PM and told me I needed to give the Dinan software more time to adapt. When I had it dynoed, I did it the day after the software was installed. I had driven 200+ miles after the installation and before the dyno. I thought it was enough.

Maybe it wasn't enough.

I ran at the drag strip 1 week after the installation of the Dinan software. So maybe the software "adapted" and gave the gains Dinan claimed. And then some. It was about ~15 degrees cooler when I ran with the Dinan vs running stock, and on the dyno.

My first run with the Dinan was the best: 13.151 @ 107.45

And even though the temperature continued to drop that evening, I was unable to eclipse that run.

I launched ~2000 rpm and punched it. DTC was on, and it felt like I was hitting the rev limiter when the wheels were trying to break loose. I thought that killed my 60', but that run happened to be my 2nd best 60' of the night. The best was 2.035 and the first was 2.051
