Default New times at the track

Well took the GXP out last night and finally got a good run in, 13.83 @ 100. That was in 75* with humidity at 74%, damn San Antonio weather. Mods in sig.

The best run I had prior to the tune and K&N Intake was a 14.17 @ 98 in 65* dry February San Antonio weather.

So all in all I guess the tune and Intake was good for 3 tenths and 2 mph in worse weather.
The tune was done at Nelson Performance here in San Antonio (guru in the GM truck/LS1/2 world). He sells the tunes as mail order tunes and you send your PCM/TCM back to him or you can send yours in and he'll flash them then send them back to you. Here is his website.

Great guy to talk to and does outstanding work. Anyone in the area I highly recommend you talk to him with your tuning needs.
Also I think my time is good enough for the #7 spot for fastest GXPs. Who keeps the list here?

It was a 04 Cobra. Yeah, I didn't see him to much after the lights fell. Tires were 44 psi in back and 28 psi in front, taking right at 1 sec to reach WOT.
