i have ottp rotated mounts, rotate the engine a bit forward to align the axles. no more hop
yes you can run a few tunes loaded into the pcm. vince from trifecta cracked that a while back. you can have the stock tune under normal conditions, dealer visits, valet, etc. hit the TC/cruise/even fog light button and you have the tune of your choice. 24 psi or gmpp stage 1 or a meth tune whatever you want. best part is the trifecta is not detectable by a gm tech when you visit the dealer.
i believe he said there is room for like 5 tunes on the pcm. isn't technology wonderful?
currently you can have the gmpp stage 1 tune or you can have an hptuner or trifecta version of that tune using the 3 bar map that comes with the gm tune(allows to read over 22.5 pounds of boost that the stock map can't handle) or you can have just the gmpp tune, or a trifecta tune not based off the gmpp tune with the stock sensor(which is what I have), or you can have a straight hptuner tune, but a straight hptuner tune can't read over 22.5 pounds currently, so there is the "pill mod" which kind of tricks the computer, but i won't get into that
all kinds of options.
my 1st does suck anyway you slice it, so i start my races from 2nd at 40mph, right at 4k

my 4th pulls pretty darn good but my boost drops from 24psi to around 21 or so by redline. the computer has parameters built in not to overspin the turbine shaft, so kind of a safety device i guess
top end is pretty good, but once into 5th its game over

Yeah This is why I want a new car
walk on a gm lot or any dealer lot and buy a new car with stock 300-500hp and just add a tune and gain crazy power!
not like the old 80's and 90's obd1 early obd2 cars

Yeah getting a new car is 100x better than sliding credit cards and racking up $25,000 in bills to have a car that'll barely run 12's... if 12's at all... if it even runs!

That really doesnt matter, on these stock turbos if you drop back it's because of bad shifting, not lag.
