Well cam swap is a no go. I broke an ear off the harmonic balancer.

Well i did some more tuning today, feel much better for some reason and it was hotter today... nothing i really did in the tune should have made the performance better except leaning out the WOT AFR from ~12.4 to 12.8... I also upped the shift points up to 6600, for some reason it is short shifting... So i had to command it to shift at 6700, weird...

Well whatever, i can notice a difference i was just hoping for a huge gain.
