Default Death to LS2 Goat...

Ran my friend, who just got the diablo sport tuner and deleted the torque management. On the way down to the EFI shootout, had a wide stretch of highway nobody around, he had his gf I had my friend in my car, and went from about a 60 roll. Started in 3rd, he started a slow pull, he had to shift, pull stopped, I shifted like a fiend to 4th, didn't help... he just sloooooowly crept away up to 110 or so. Car is DEFINITELY a new animal with that TRM crap gone. I don't feel my car is down on power, and I certainly aint mad, I kind of figured as much. No videos the camera was in the glovebox Thanks for reading.

Very interesting. Same thing happened to me and BubbaBFP. I guess Torque management makes a hell of a difference on those cars.... was it an auto or m6?

M6 with about 5500 miles. Before the tune I think the outcome would've been very different, but that's just how it goes. Time to reaggitate the mod bug

Nice death man. Time for 150 shot

An auto GTO with x-pipe, programmer, nittos, and magnaflows beat me by a car and a half. Everyone is saying that he has nitrous. I doubted it because I would figure he would have beaten me by a lot more. The first time before his mods I beat him by 2 cars after spinning all of first gear (bald nittos and i panicked) and I also hit the revv limitor in 3rd gear. Those few mods he got made a hell of a difference. Its a totally different car. Now I know he doesnt have nitrous

TNT here I come!

Thanks man, I'm gonna wait till spring then do a cam, some 243 castings, LS6 intake, LS7 clutch, and see if I can pull ~400rwhp out of the setup. We're gonna head to the track in a few weekends and see how that goes... first time down the 1/4 for both of us, might see the slowest LS1 ever
