When i return from Iraq, im doin a stall and H/C and ill probably get a street tune from chauncey or another guy i know.

As far as the tune goes man, like i said, chauncey knows how to tune pretty damn good, hell, bens truck is prime example of that, thats why i will probably have him tune my car, and brain can tune his *** off too, but i cant justify $450 for a tune to myself, nevermind my wife. Thier is a point to me when prices seem like they are just unreasonable. Just my .02

i am aware of the fact that tuning a car with alot of mods isent just a cake walk. My buddy jamie, who is on this website(Raise) no offense, but has probably had more f-bodies than all of us in our local group has, put together, hell he has even had an ls2 gto! Anyway, my point is, his latest creation, an 02 Z28 with 8000 miles on it that he just bought bone stock, has everything done to it already, that i want, as far as performance atleast, 228 cam texas speed stage 2.5 heads and a yank 3600 stall, and he introduced me to a guy that lives up here in newport news that tunes all of his cars when he mods them, and does it on the street and after riding in his car afterwards, u would have thought it came stock because it idles perfect and runs nasty. All im saying, is to me it doesnt seem competitve to pay almost $500 for a damn tune.

dont worry man. literaly take off the stock air box and silencer and fit the new one on and clamp it down.... only problem you might have, most of us do, is fittment. it might hit the bottom of the hood and start to scratch it. make sure she is secure and the clamps dont come back up.
