Let er rip! Hey all,
Finally got a chance to really give it hell after cam install and tune.
Raced an '05 from a 20-30 roll.....Got my *** handed to me
....but it was fun..........and it really wasnt that bad.
Now mind you, Im no daily/weekend racer. I tend to baby my cars....with the exception of the occasional run in like tonight.
I gotta say tho....baby got torque! Broke traction (obviously) from the start...But damn!...........broke traction in 3rd and 4th!
My *** was shakin like a dancer in a nudie bar!
What a rush!
Anyhow, it was fun and got this old mans heart pumping again.

Your car will be fine just give it a little time, I'm still working with my car to get it where I want to be. We did take it to the dyno yesterday big jump from where it used to be lost a little torque but gained about 50hp just with rockers and ud pulley.

unless you are refering to a turbo as a bolt on... even ~370RWHP on a 05 with LTs... nope... not worried....

No this was MSL, I guess they fixed it was really happy it made 375HP and 360 TQ with the big 4400 converter. We need to get together sometime, maybe this summer I'll try to invite everybody over for a cookout or something.

Glad MSL got things worked out cause I need another dyno somewhere.
My #'s were a paultry 330/326 the first go around.
Guess I need to start pestering Rob again.
