Right, I gathered that by your first post.

Posting here does not cost anything per word. Using punctuation, full words and proper sentences will go a long way towards getting the information you want from others here.

A bit better than stock, but not alot, since I have not increased the maximum fuel rate setting inside the injection pump.

find some auto crosses... you can probably run in stock and just do it for fun since a 300D is not that much of a racer... now if you had a 280CE then you might be something to fear
