I've never rode with anyone. I'm just trying to get into some action since my rebuild.
This will be my first race that's actually been planed.
Shoot me a PM. If it works with you I would like to get a run before
I add my CAI, ported Manifold and dyno tune (still on tweaked start up tune)
Use your car as a benchmark in a way. I want to see how close I am to a 440hp car.

Wait, so you're on a startup tune still with H/C? Do yourself a favor and at least get some revisions in before you race too much on a startup tune. Last thing you want to do is hurt your car.

I have 4 revisions. I say tweaked start up because I have
A need to get it dyno tuned. My revisions weren't done with a A/F gauge so its on the safe side.
Zero knock across the board.

Should be a fun race. My car has never been dyno tuned either, just street tuned with EFI live. Where are you getting tuned and what numbers are you expecting?

I tried synergy, but I guess they only do LS based tuning.
I'm leaning towards Dittos in SF

Well I was quoted around 440 with the heads and cam. But I seen them dynod between 415-420ish and 460. I'll assume I'm on the low end until I'm proved otherwise.
Hoping to pick up another 15-30 with the ported manifold U/D pulley and CAI.

Dittos is a cool place, that's the place my tuner rents out to tune my Z06. They have some sick Mopars, they tuned a buddy of mines challenger R/T

Dittos tuned my boys cammed 300 srt8 and that thing pulls like crazy on the top end. He made 420 rwhp with a Spartan cam and ported intake manifold. He was my bench mark for a long time until I finally got cammed. No I use my boys cammed ls2 gto.

That package you picked up is going to really wake that car up. Maybe we can shoot for Tuesday night.

Thanks, I hope so. I can't wait to see how it run.
Worst case is I get the other bolt ons and try again.
Win or lose I'm sure it'll be fun.

Tuesday sound great. I'm back in the Oakland area about 8.

I knew it was you Ben, lol. Only so many burnt LS2 GTO's running around these parts. One of the cleanest GOATS around. It's still slow though

Jk, put a cam in that beast and show this Mopar guy who's boss next time.
