Run the car up to speed (about 30-40) MPH using lower gears, put it in 4th (that is the 1:1 ratio) and firewall it! The rest works all by itself.

Like Jabroni said. They gingerly take it up to speed to 4th. Then they nail it and take it up near the limiter.

...And WELCOME to the site!

On my website (down at the bottom) are dyno runs in 3rd,4th and 5th. It is interesting info.

I descreened the maf on my 2002 M6 (after much thought) and it has been perfect. You won't have a problem.

That is only partially true in a couple of repsect. 2001 and up cars come with the revised "LS6" intake stock. There was also a run of LS6 blocks that went into F-body production during the same time frame but there were no complete LS6 engines installed in F-bodies from GM.
