I just got back from the dyno and hopped on the computer I found some threads but somebody please help....

My dyno guy freaked me out when my car ran a 13.5-13.8 across the powerband. Is this not okay? Will I be buying a new motor soon?

We unplugged the Reinhart chip, ran it and got almost the same numbers (maybe a 10th or so lower, then he ran a scan and made sure everything was working, it was. He said a hot day and some bad fuel and I'd be done. I've got 18,000 on the car right now and have had the Stage 1 since 2200 miles.

The last thread I on this after a search started out good but then turned into a "my tuner can beat up your tuner" debate. I just want someone to help me sleep good tonight. :)

That's the one I read it starts out w/some good insights and information but never offers any "13.8 is completely fine, no worrys" and that's what I'm looking for. If you keep reading you'll also see what I'm talking about from my first post.
