It ranged from 14.04 to 14.21 through about a dozen passes,99-101 MPH ! So then i was wanting a 13 so bad,so i took the air filter out and the engine cover that seems more like a heat shield off and let it cool off for a while with the hood up ! And look out here it came 13.94 ! I cant wait for the cold air and tune ! And for some reason it seems to get a little better time leaving the traction control on ???? Is this normal for these cars ? I am just use to my WS6 TA and on it you must turn it off !

I don't know if 09s need the ECM/TCM retune or not, but mine was faster with T/C on as well until I had that done. My heat shield/cover is sitting out in my shed. Lol

Assume you are not running slicks or drag radials? Just street tires?

Yes street tires,the car is only a couple weeks old ! With traction control off it still doesnt spin at the track,and only a little on the street ! But still gets better times with the TC on ?
