Like Matty said, I've been tuning it myself. It doesn't ping at all, but with bigger injectors and a correct mixture under load, I would be able to add more timing and get that torque curve right up there.
As far as aborting the run, I signed a disclaimer, so if it popped they weren't liable.
Race torque simply did what I asked them too.
And they were very forthcoming with advice to improve the tune
