You could get away with map 7. You are running 93 I imagine. If you have a BT cable then no worries if you end up getting tuner codes for some reason. I know guys running map 6 on 91. I run map 5 on 91 and so far so good.

the thin air will make a difference with boost of course and you are likely seeing less boost then I am at 600ft. What you can do is email terry and ask him what he thinks you should do. I cant remember if you got a BT. If you did just try map 5 out and see. Terry may be able to send you a chip with a little tweaking. I know that in my Cobra I ran 17psi at my altitude then when I went to Palmdale racetrack which sat at 2600ft but DA was normally over 4000ft I would pulley it down to make up for the boost loss do to the crap air and having too much fuel for the 2 psi less boost I was seeing. I could also lean it out but it was easier to change a pulley.

I've been running Map 7 for about 8 months and never had a code or a problem. I have Dp's, dual cone intake, Jb3 1.4, 91 octane, Forge DV's. Always thought I should pick a higher map so I'll be faster right? but just recently i said, lets try a different map so I went to map 5 and for some reason my butt dyno is telling me that I am so much faster now. Its either because I have gotten too used to map 7 and now I just feel a difference, or its because maybe map 5 is more suited for my mods and the car is actually faster. who knows
