"Just go bud"...coming from a guy in a Blazer lol.
That thing rolled out hard. WTF is up with all these cars running around untuned though, especially in an application with boost?

This. I call BS too. Aint no way that would run without a tune. Yet actually move anything. It HAS to be tuned just to run.
What's this mean?
The 24x puts the LS1 ECM on an LT1. The LSx is a superior platform, but the LT1 isn't all that bad either. Then again, if we are talking LT's, the LS just became second fiddle to the LT's..... Gen 5 that is LOL.

Yeah it looks like the guys making the video just wanted to make the Blazer disadvantages sound more than what they were. I also like the crap about the "claimed 550hp"...just shut up and race. The Lambo probably did have that kind of power...just be happy with the victory and stop trying to make it sound more than what it is.

It's simple really. LT1 even on a base mail order/startup tune and 14psi will make 700-800hp depending on heads and cam. Even with the aero of a sideways brick, 550hp isn't enough to keep up with that.
Terribly little information about both cars, so have to just take it as it is, a fun little race between a supercar and a over bashed 20+ year old motor in an SUV

Its a new setup, hes tuning it on Megasquirt himself and isnt sure wheres hes at really. I think thats why the creator of the video says "untuned".
Clearly its tuned well enough lol. Him and I will be running soon, just stripped 4th gear in the trans though =/

And it's because, not cause. And what does "good try down side" mean?

This makes sense. Maybe he should change it from "untuned" to "tuning in progress".
