Default 2010 SS at AMS

We received a call from the customer in need of having his car looked at for some issues/concerns. The car is a 2,900 mile sick looking SS LS3/T56.

car came in with the following

forged pistons / 9.4:1 comp.
stock crank
stock rods
cam pkg. ( unknown specs )
Single Turbo kit w/ Turbonetics 76mm
FAST 65# injectors
Livernoise twin pump setup
stock midpipe
SLP axle back
E85 being injected via a Meth system
catch can
Hurst shifter
Unknown aftermarket clutch
Spohn arms
VFN hood
Foose wheels
Custom paint

We consulted with the customer after viewing the car and worked out a plan of attack. We got the major issues resolved and worked with the system the best we could without removing the drivetrain.


We can confidently say in the end we made the car much more safe and enjoyable to drive with what we had to work with. We also picked up some power with less boost and timing. The car pulls very hard throughout the rpm band now

The customer is extremely happy with the repairs and re-tune.


here are a few pics of the car












The below graph shows the difference of the tune it came in with ( with repairs/revisions completed ) and the results after AMS re-tune
93 octane and Meth ( no E85 injection )

We chose to leave that info out so there is no mud slinging battles. The detailed info will be left for the customer to release if he decides to.

I'm sure you can understand.

yes we were confused prior to actually getting the car in and confirming it was as the customer mentioned.

besides the fact of E85 injection being unheard off the fumes from the 5 gallon tank in the trunk made the car practically undrivable.
