could my car actually be slower? Hey guys i have a 98 TA, auto. I have the following mods, 2002 ls6 cam and springs, midwest 3400 stall, 373 gears, air lid, ported throttle body,160 stat, no cats w true duals dumped, all free mods, no air,smog crap, with no tuning at all... the question is could the car actually be slower than it was stock it sure doesnt seem to pull as hard as it did before all the mods.... could the no tuning be killing me or have i just gotten used to it and it feels....

It certainly should feel faster..though where are the headers ?? Need to have scan software to see if O2s are in the ballpark, what effective timing you get and whether you have knock, etc .....
