Default new power adder worked great yesterday!

not the same one...but you get the idea...

"Now that's what I call high quality H2O"



Temp progressed yesterday up to around 80 degrees.
I sprayed down the FMIC, tubing and the ProCharger between runs...
resulting in a new best of 13.283@102.23
and I believe there's more in the tune as well...
I was running the same tune that I had run Friday night w/o spraying water and picked up 3 tenths in the 1/8th...even with higher ambient conditions...

You just sprayed it all down with plain water? What about it dripping down on the track?
I have thought about doing something like that but was afraid the track officials might not like it.
More details please

fastnblu...pm sent

ranwalk...
just good ol' high quality h2o...
evaporated fairly quickly...actually sprayed everything more than I had planned on...no problem w/ dripping...any excess dripped off or evaporated between the pit area and the staging lanes...
cooled the ProCharger and ProCharger side of the piping and FMIC completely
