I haven't been there in years. What hours is test n' tune now? What are they charging for it these days? I'm tempted to bring the formula out and baseline it.

Won't be heading out tonight. Intake manifold is still off the car. Awaiting a new LS6 valley cover that'll be here tomorrow. Had an intake leak causing major problems for Doc when he tried tuning it a couple weeks ago. Pretty sure I found the problem and will be all back together tomorrow afternoon!

I got one run in but it was so worth the 25 dollars! Ive been roller coasters that didnt give me as much entertainment as my car did that night.

Big thanks to the EFI Alchemy crew! They gave me the hook up!
