If the turnout is good, I would like to do the Hooter's thing at least twice a year. It doesn't matter if you are bone stock or a race car...we just like to hang out and have a good time.

Well, took the car back to R&T's and to fix my idle issue we had to pull of the 90/90 and put the LS6 intake back on. The car starts with out me footing the gas and idle decient. We had to retune it because of less airflow and the larger injectors. This is the first time the car's been dyno'd since I've had the heads, cam, and 90/90 put on. I've since added the stall, larger injectors, and back to the LS6 intake and ported Tb. I'm making 400hp and 390tq at the wheels in 95* weather. The really sad thing it I can't spin the M/T Et Streets and my car feels slow.

No offense to R&T, but it may be time to look for a new tuner. I would suggest StraightLine.

did you crack your fast intake when it was installed in the first place? other wise why would the ls6 make any difference?

No cracks. I'm not sure why it makes that much a difference. But I'm going to sell the 90/90 and put a new trans in and go from there. I honestly think its a tunning issue so Staightline here I come!

I didn't loose that much Tq going back to the LS6 from the fast. It just doesn't scream up top like it did. I'm starting to thing that I've made a bad cam choice too. Live and learn.

I am not a big fan of R&T shop. I have talked to the guy a few times and I heard of some problems with them. I would not take my car there for any work. I have HPtuners, so I can do all my own tuning.

I've never heard anthing good about R&T, just about the owner's brother(i think)..He's very smart when it comes to motorcycles...

What H/C do you have? (ICRAZY6)
