Edit: Oops that madwolf was for your LT1 car. Either way, you probably have no experience at all with dyno tuning. And you definitely have none with Jeff. And while it may not always be wrong, living your life based of what somebody said on the internet is retarted.
Suit yourself dude. Considering I personally know face to face (and live within an hour of me) no less than 10 people that have picked up over 20 more rwhp and gained more importantly extremely better driveablility.

So my advice to you is once again...take your car to someone who actually cares about you behind the scenes, doesn't pull guns on their customers, and doesn't deny wrecking customers cars.

until then STFU because you obviously have no clue how to read a map. I LIVE AN HOUR AWAY FROM HIS SHOP DUDE. And hell no i don't have any personal experience with him (why the **** would I after 4 years of bad rap from customers?)

And making a comment about a mail-order tune like that, YOU obviously have no clue what you are talking about when it comes to cars. Oh BTW $110 for my mail order tune and have you been 7.50's on a Stock LT1 with a 75 shot and a converter? Didn't think so.

have a nice day.

PM sent on teh guy who asked.

Driviablilty I can see, but not theres not a whole lot to gain from his WOT tune on a bolt on car. If you think I can make 20 more rwhp, let me know where. Imagine the grief I'll get for posting that.

Thanks for your concern.

Read a map? You obviously have no clue how to read a post. I don't remember giving any geography lessons, I said you don't have any experience with him and you don't other than hear say (which I'm not doubting, but it is just hear say). That has nothing to do with where you live. I'm also an hour away from his shop but I don't know him any better because of it.

4 years bad rap, huh? What about the 10 years of nothing but the best. People **** up from time to time. I've heard the stories, but I'm not passing judgement on an issue that I don't know the whole truth on.

My comment on the mail order tune was for your comment on copying a tune from another car, which is pretty much all mail order tunes are. There's no way that they can be anything else without some data logging or something of that nature.

And for the record I've been 8.26@85 in a bolt on M6 LT1, no tune or nitrous. 7.50s isn't impressive for that car, it's expected.

suit yourself man. I have seen the "lack" and i do mean lack of effort put into his recent work (less than 4 years).

So running equal with a 4000+ converter, 3.73 gear bolt on LS1 with long tubes and tune with ONLY a 75 shot, 3600 converter, 3.73 gear and a "snail-order" tune in a 3700 lb car with driver isn't impressive?


So you got a stripped full-bolt on LT1 barely into the 12's. Congrats, you're barely on par with everyone else in the world. How did those 4.33's run on the street btw?

8.26 and 85 mph doesn't add up is what I'm saying. Dispense the bull, Contrary to what my friends say I'm not a retard.

Wow there is so much bullshit in this I dont know where to start. First jons Lt-1 car damn sure run an 8.26 in the 1/8 with 3.42 gears, and that was like 8 years ago. And at the same time My car ran a 7.90 completly stock on a 100 shot no converter no tune and a flowmaster and plain jane cheap radials. So basically we have forgotten more about lt1 cars than you will ever know. Nothing you have is worth a **** but if you want to run somthing then let us know. We still have all of our cars along with our new toys maybe we can pull his BS 8.26 car out of retirement and come bust your ***.

Uh, no. seeing as how an LT1 is only about 50-60 rwhp down from an LS1 I'd say a 75 shot evens them out pretty well. Like I said it's not bad, but that's what it should run.

You sure sound like a retard. You went 7.5 @ 88. that's like 7 tenths fast than me but only 3 more mph. M6s have better mph than A4s, and on that run I did cut a 1.55 60'. On the norm I ran 1.8 60's and 8.6s @ 85

That's in my 3.42 geared, jack and spare tire removed, headered, cold aired, 52mm TBed, pullied, aluminum driveshafted, rocker armed (is that a bolt on??), and untuned 96 Z28. Not claiming to be a record breaker, I seen faster with less. But yours just is not "impressive"

Well I pulled the front skinnie about 8" so I was impressed with what little I had in the car.


You have a 12-bolt when you pulled that 1.55? If it was with a 10 then congrats on not busting the **** out of a pinion. lol
