That TQ curve is SICK my friend, SICK. That's where it counts. Very nice #'s through cats as well. You're probably in the 415rwhp range without cats and a retune.

Congrats.

I'm right at where I want to be for right now. From what I've read the cats are a must for the GMMG, and I need them to pass emissions anyway.

I know there is a bunch more power available if I decide to do heads and a larger TB/Intake setup. I'm extremely happy with the mods as of right now.
