So you dropped 4 tenths/picked up 3 mph? That's not too shabby.

An Outlaw install/Chris tune special. Gotcha. Why didn't he get it "spot on" when he tuned it the first time? Just curious.

To be fair, 98's are tough to tune with anything over a 232 camshaft in an automatic (per what I told you via PM a while back). You're only gonna get it so good with that sloooooooowwwww PCM before it's just not going to get any better.

What is it doing that you think needs more adjusting?

well the tune is great.....driveability is awesome for "that sized cam" and "slooooww 98 pcm".....and it was running 12.8 when i got it...i'm not sure what happened...when i take it back we'll figure it out...get it fixed and i'll have one badass car, Outlaw installed/Chris tuned.....

Any FI gurus here?

Itching to s/c the c6 lately. The 3 kits that stick out are the Maggy, Procharger and the A&A kits.

Ive done so much research that my head is spinning. Anyone have any experience w/ these? Eastcoast Performance is offering the A&A installed/tuned/dyno for $6695, they are 5 hrs away so I was hoping for something alittle closer but that seems to be the best deal out there.

Any insight/suggestions? Not looking for anything crazy, hopefully around 550hp.

im gonna say go with a procharger just for the simple fact im not a big fan of maggy and A&A's ****. with a d1sc on a c6 it will net you some where around high 500's and that should be plenty. plus its safe boost and with an ATI bypass valve itll sound like a jet when you smash the gas.

I do like the maggy but would need a new hood. with the other kits i could use that money down the road towards cam/etc
