Well, it's been a little while; thought I'd give an update.
I went over to Greenville and talked to the guys I'm gonna get to tune it. They seem really cool, and helpful. They agreed that a tune would help. We'll see, and I'll post a little feedback on these guys once I get it done.
I haven't gotten it tuned yet b/c I'm thinking real hard about getting a catted h-pipe first, and if I decide to do that, I want it on the car before I get a tune. So once I decide/get the h-pipe on the car, I'll be getting it tuned very soon after.
Me and my dad checked the engine vacuum this afternoon. It stayed between 19 and 20 [units] during idle. That's about right, right? So we know that isn't the problem. Really starting to seem that the tune is the problem, but we'll see for sure soon enough.
Winters, my bro works at a agricultural supply store and I'm gonna get him to weigh my car sometime soon, hopefully early this week. I'll get that up when I know. I did have my spare tire, jack, and subs in the back, but all that together is less than 100 lbs, so that's only about .1 s at best.
A funny side story: I just got back from a weekend at Kings Dominion up in VA. Got in my car this afternoon and mashed the gas a couple a times. Maaaan, my car seems PATHETICALLY slow after riding all those roller coasters. I guess 0-70 on those roller coasters in less than 3 seconds is a little bit faster than 0-60 in over 6 seconds in my car....
