Srs question: with a helmet on do you have to keep the sunroof open to fit in the car? Also that looked pretty fun.

Even with my sunroof open, my helmet still hits the roof...and my floor pan has been beat in for "clearance" already...

I've been doing some datalogging down in mexico*cough* and i'm happy with how the car is running even with the rise in ambient temps
Hitting the dyno soon(ish) to see what the car will do some meth.

If your using VDR just setup the proper info and plot your graph with dynojet mode. It's very accurate, don't really even need a dyno. I've used it a bunch Looks a little lean up to for my taste tho, and the a/f is all over the place. What's peak boost?

It's because of the scaling. The AFR is going between 11.7-12 it just looks like more of a swing than what it is. Don't forget the N54 is DI so it is safe to run slightly leaner than EFI. Peak boost on that run was ~17.5psi.

I've tried using the VD to plot a dyno run but it always seems to read low. The car made 330rwhp/380rwtq on a dynocom chassis dyno. Now it's running more boost(with less taper up top) and more timing and according to VD it makes about 320hp/340tq. The normal dynojet numbers for my mods is around 370hp/400tq.
