I love the threads with engine running in the first post :)

Any chance you can mention "rusEFI" in the video title?
Any chance you can upload your tune to https://rusefi.com/online?

I put it in the description but yes I’ll put it in the title.I don’t think the tune is in a place for uploading, yet. I always planned to upload once I am able to drive it.

First drive. I’ve put about 30 miles on it so far. Still at wastegate pressure 6psi. Need to go through everything and make sure it’s safe. Will register it this week. Then I can put it to the real test.
