Default Tuning done by Texas Speed!!!!

Made the drive from Oklahoma, City to Texas Speed today "800 miles round trip" I have an 01 SS with SLP long tubes TSP air lid and a LGM G5X2, TSP hardened push rods, Patriot double springs and Ti retainers after jason worked his magic it made 419rwhp and 402.5 rwtq would recommend these guys to ANYONE for retail sales, tuning, installs etc. etc. even after TWO tickets from Texas DPS on the way home. I would do it all over again. A+++++

Jason did the tuning on my car and I'll have to say I don't see how it could be any better.

I was 1 mile from the Ok. border thoughts went through my head along with scenes from Smokey and the Bandit "Bye Bye Baby" but I changed my mind. He was headed west bound at 70+ and I was headed east at 90+ he would have never known what hit him. The guy that was with me was from that area and has a 2000 acre ranch within a few miles of the incident.

man i would have smoked him and ran. **** 'em. at 90mph you would have had at least a half mile head start while he was turning around, and you drop it into fourth, and you're gone. i've lost a couple dedicated texas state troopers in just that fashion they don't usually roam in packs, so you really CAN outrun them. on the highway....their radio doesn't help them for **** if they don't have anybody nearby that can help out poor bastard slow five oh

from my experience, you have to watch out on I-35 between fort worth and hillsboro, especially after about exit 20, til you hit the split right before hillsboro. they DO roam that bitch in packs. i am wary of that area. i've seen upwards of ten state troopers in two miles pullin ppl over there. not a pretty sight. also down near austin the cops tend to get a little antsy as well.


'bout your tuning tho, glad to hear everything worked out the way you hoped, they do great work up at TSP, bout to install their 231/237 and get their mail tune. should hold me over til the spring when i get heads
