Default hmmm one as low as 6.92 - These are pretty straight roads

some elevation change, not much though....

I'm doing the cruisecontrol at 45mph then stomp throttle method, that still the accepted norm (reading page from 4 years ago) ??

Default 9.03 stock 6.7-6.9 on stage 1 - does that sound about right or slow?

Out of ten runs, one of my stage 1 MTM chips was over 9 seconds, I'm going to chalk that up as an abnomoly, or too much elevation change - the rest are between 6.7 and 6.9

stocks are pretty consistent between 8.79 and 9.03...

Default it was pretty cool outside, and i made sure to give it a nice casual drive between runs -

It's possible I suppose, but based on your reply I'm assuming those times are slow?... I am just trying to get some good logging before I send my MTM ecu to EPL for the stage2+ program.

Default Start at around 3k rpms, keep your foot pegged and don't let up until you've exceeded 6.5k rpms.

All of your times seem rather high. Do you have a boost guage, and have you pressure tested the car recently?

Default I do have a boost gauge and hold boost well... ~15psi with MTM, 9.5-10 psi with stock

have not pressure tested - but I have no signs of a vacuum leak that I can tell.... I started considerably higher than 3000 rpms, more like 3800 or whatever 45mph is Looking back at logs it's more like 3200 i guess....
