Word around the block is also that if somebody starts pulling on him he slams the brakes and doesn't let it happen and then whines making excuses. These rumors around the block are from DSM people too, so no biased f-body lover comments here
11.3 and nobody can beat him?!? someone let me borrow a nitrous kit and i'll go do it on a 150 pill...

Not too many cars that have put down very good times are out messing around on the streets these days.

Last night was fun for sure. Looking forward to doing it again with everybody! Mike, I would call Texas Speed and tell them what kind of issues you are having if you didn't write it down on paper when you sent your pcm. I am sure they can get it pretty damn close. It is always hard when the car is not physically there so they can see what it is doing.

Not to rain on your parade Mike, but there is no way I would trust a mail order tune with a nitrous shot.

I have ran one of my cars with NO tune on a dry shot and was just fine. Not saying I recomend that but that was in my earlier days in LS1 experience. A 100 dry shot you will be fine, just make sure you switch over to TR6 plugs.

Nitrous without a dynotune...

Do whats best for your motor and get a dynotune. A huge shop isn't going to care to spend much time on your mail-order tune.

Not against living on the edge.. just hope as a friend it doesn't come back to bite you in the ***
