Point being made is that the almost EXACT numbers coming in.
Canned map, no timing touched, completed in (3 warm-up pulls,or at least thats how we were taught) 12 remaining pulls, and the last 3 being performed in less than a 3 minute period, encroaching on close of business hours. So 9 pulls tunes a 117", unknown combination???
As I have said in another post, I cannot trim up the timing, on a carb bike, in 9 pulls.
Being a custom engine build, would not the due respect of a custom map, be quite appropriate? I certainly think so, instead of treating the build as some bag of $hit?? That really, really, frosts my figs, right there, as it would anyone, that cares about what they do for the client.

The frost on your figs are understandable in the case you descibe. I understand the client probably just wants his bike and ride it now. I sure would. Drum time would be shorter since it is for validating numbers and not a tune. The guy might do it on the cuff just for a chance to discredit Joe. One things for sure. If he does do it, and can't produce the numbers you will hear about it. If he does produce numbers, you probably wont.
