Injected or Vengence. Buddy drops his G8 off to Vengence hear in a week or two. White one H/C SC'r. Fuel system, and 5lbs more boost.

Watched a Injected built Vette today make 1005whp.

Its a silver gxp badged except the arrowheads and the side gxp embels, with black wheels and I love it. A woman turned in front of me the other day so I have to get a new bumper so she is down for now. I will look into these guys for tuning as I have a new intake and I think I threw a code.

I have a street tune and a race tune. Both 93 just different timing in each. Race tune is more agressive. I have added racegas in it just to make sure no detenation or pulling timing. No tune for race gas yet. I have run people on my street tune on the street. At the track I will always have the race tune in.

On way home yesterday from Injected I had race tune in it. Big diff. On race tune from 60 roll in second I was sideways in 3 lanes. On street tune it pretty much hooks. Thats on my street tires and rims. 20"s with 285 Nitto's.

I've found another dash that's perfect, but dread changing all that out.
i would not want to do that unless forced to.. get vynl repair kit and fill the holes

I have pro. I think the forum is useless when it comes to getting help for the most part. Find someone who will teach you how to tune. Just make sure they know what their doing. I am going to buy the tuning school stuff. I think efi live will gives you more features from what I have heard.

I've had Hptuners for about a month now. And I say its a very good program very user friendly. Like sheik said if you know someone who can teach you that's the best method otherwise you will be flipping pages in Performance How-To Engine Management advanced tuning like me haha.
