I had mine at 800 with a 227/233 110LSA grind and it loped hard on the stock shortblock. You could feel the bass in your stomach . Mine didn't go out the back though, so yours will be a lot more pleasant to drive around in - highway drone is pretty bad dumped before the axle

I am planning on playing with the idle soon. I am going to see how it sounds at 800 rpm.

Target idle under the first constant section IIRC. Been a while since I messed with tunerpro software.

**edit** Opened up tunerpro and its under Tables/Functions, my bad.

I agree. You could probably sell a few of these systems.

Car definitely has more low to mid end power than with the Borla and ORY. Cant wait to see it on the dyno, but that wont happen till Fall when its cooler.

I dont plan to market them, UNLESS I find my self unemployed in the future. Knock on wood.
But if someone is wanting to shell out some major bucks, and I do mean major, they can contact me.

Hey Puck,
I lowered my idle from 900 to 800 RPM in the tune. It does lope just a little more and does sounds overall a bit better. When I check the Scanmaster tach, it shows around 850 RPM asopposed to the 950 RPM on the previous tune. I might be able to lower it another 50 RPM or so.

Sweet, I bet our cars will sound almost identical from the outside . Mine will have a ton more interior noise though since its dumped right off the muffler before the diff . I am going to put some turn downs angled off it to see if that cuts down on the inside noise once it is all back together.
