Default 98 Trans Am, Bolt on's

Just back from the Rev Xtreme shop and I'm very happy!

It's a 98 M6 TA with 69K miles.
I had them install a set of Grotts headers and an LS6 intake and a new Spec 3 clutch. The car already had a Pulley and a full length dual exhaust.

After Jeremy Formato did the tuning it made...

HP 353.21
TQ 361.47

With a correction factor of .97 so uncorrected the numbers were even higher.

Not bad #'s at all. Especially when you consider the fact it was dynoed 3 hours after they closed. That is some serious customer service.

Congrats Dave...I'de spray that thing, but that's just me.

Excellent point that I should not have missed, they stayed late and worked hard to get this done. You can't ask for more than that, awesome customer service!

BTW, Dry kit going on right now...

They are the only place I know of with such dedication. Dino, Jeremy and all the guys over there are great! Its almost like a 24 hour shop.

I highly recommend them!

We're glad that you're happy Dave! I carried a few Marine Corps traits over with me, such as Mission Accomplishment is a priority...

They stayed hours after their closing so we could get my headers on my car. We had a hell of a time putting my Y-pipe on (Pacesetter Y sucks) and they helped me. We had about 4 or 5 people at a time working on my car. When it was finished, it was tuned and dynoed thanks to RevX and Jeremy Formato.......Fist Class is true but, they are in a class all their own. Never going to go anywhere else :yup:

Keep up the great work Dino, Kyle, Ryan, and Jeremy!

I have to agree with all of these guys here. On more than one occasion these guys have stayed late to take care of me. Do to the hours I work, I am not able to get to the shop until the time they would normally close. The last time I dynoed they stayed open 3 extra hours for me as well.

Thank God you left the part behind about shooting everything that made you mad...

I'm just waiting until I get a few more miles on it, but so far just part throttle is a big improvement!

Who said I left that part behind? I'm just a little more careful now, and I have to pick and choose.

You living so far away, should have it broken in after 2 trips. You should be mid 12's @ 113ish with the way it sits.
