Tune is only good enough to let it idle and drive around town half ***. Was having some issues on the dyno so it's going back in a few weeks to be redone.

That's actually my work car, lol. Be a few weeks before I can get any action videos. Car barely drives right now and has no power. It put down 370hp on the dyno, which I think is less than what I dropped it off at the shop with, with stock heads, LS6 intake, and a MTI T1 cam. Added the T-rex, Patriot S2 heads, and a ported Fast 90/90 setup and loss power, go figure. Truth is, the tuner was under some time constraints of his own and one of my cylinders wasn't firing as hot as it should. So in the time alotted, he got it tuned to idle and be able to drive, it's not pretty, but it drives. Ended up being a bad plug wire. So in a few weeks I'm bringing back over to the West coast of Florida and then hopefully the fun begins =).

You'd swear all of us cops want to be astronauts with all the lights we put on our cars. I like the UFO look and the car sounds great man. Nice to know I'm not the only POPO that likes to have a little fun.

Sounds pretty good, not as loud as I thought it would be. What mufflers are you using? Also is that a tach on the dash? that bugga is huge.

Honestly, I'm not sure what mufflers they are. I bought the setup used, which are Texas Speed Performance duals, so whatever they use. The car sounds loud as hell while in it. I think the tuning has a lot to do with it though. We'll see what she sounds like in a week or so once she's properly tuned.

And yes, that is a tach on the dash. 5" Cobalt tach.
