was it on while you were towing it to the water?
I'm not buying a magical 13 MPH improvement over the norm...

We'll, before the Vtech tune it would do 42, with the tune it should top out at 54.5, do you think the wind helped me yesterday?

most top speed runs are run in opposite directions.
so you do 2 runs, then average them.

:thumbsup: Wind and current can have a significant impact on single direction runs

Not only that, but CheapPC, you never mention the new 'tune' in your first post... so we have nothing to compare it to..?
I'm sorry, I just did the Vtech tune, before the Vtech tune, my Spark would only top out at 42 mph, after the Vtech tune I only saw 52 on my screen, but my gps said different, however, I only ran it like 3 minutes.. So maybe another run this weekend? I'll be at lake Mohave/Mead + Colorado River this weekend and do a 10 minute run and check it out.
I think my gps was wrong, top speed recorded on a spark without turbo is 54.5 per other forums.

Do those other forums mention what else had been done to them other than the tune? Waterbox, intake, exhaust, inlet grate? Those are all supposed to help a little, especially if the tune can take those into consideration when it is being made?
