lol... "While changing out cd's"
Your car and mine sound remarkably alike. I bought mine new in Nov 95 from Bill Heard Cheyrolet in Houston/Sugarland. I've always been a big fan of stealh cars that run hard but look stock since seeing a stock looking 1970 LS6 Chevelle beat a SS 454 Chevelle that had tunnel ram sticking thru the hood, dual 850 Holleys, sponsor stickers everywhere, big panted shop name all over. The sponsored car was a hometown favorite and ran very consistent, seemed to beat everyone. THen one day, these four guys from out of town show up with this plain LS6 Chevelle shows up, factory 360 degree aluminum, single carb manifold. We all looked under the hood and thought, "what an idiot. Racing for $200 with this?!". To top it off, the driver looked loopy. Tall, skinny and looked like he'd been drunk very recently. We were all blown away when he absolutely stomped the big sponsored car. This was at a local dragstrip so it was legit and the sponsored car ran his usual numbers. Up till that point, I'd been putting stickers from every part I bought on my car, proud of the purchase. Afterwards I decided I'd much rather be "Rich than Famous" and went for the stealth aspect. Other than my Intercooler out front, you can't tell my car isn't stock. Quiet, no loping (which I admit, I love loping cams), no smelly exhaust(though no cats), no cam surge, stock wheels, stock tire sizes, not lowered, on and on. Consequently, I have been jumped on by about everything. WRX's, Turbo Neons, VW GTI's, BMW's, Mustangs, Sport Bikes, etc. I keep waiting for a GTO, fellow Fbody, Vettes or Vipers but so far, no luck![Sad](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_sad.gif)
Considering the metrics of your 11.4 pass, that MPH is amazing! Congrats.
When the temps get down a bit, I'll head over to Austin and perhaps you and I can head to The Salt Lick or Rudys or Herberts (San Marco's) and then off to SAR?

I sent Bryan Herter (Tuner from PCM4Less that created my Tune) a post about the success at the dyno and that I was considering a Blitz Electronic Boost Controller. He replied that he was more a fan of Manual Boost Controllers and said he really likes the "Joe P" Manual Boost Controllers. I'm giving them a look at their web site. Looks nice and simple and even their high end version is a 1/4 of the price of the Blitz Electronic I was considering buying.
