Thanks FASTECH !!
Grrrr... Ok well I was supposed to have my car back from Fastech LAST friday... now of course there have been a few problems.... but they still have it now. Billy tries to get in touch with them and they are either not there or too busy to answer.
I know Sean will square her (My TA) away... I am really just looking forward to haveing her back... its been a looooooong time.

The other guys were a bad rip-off. Anyways, I am so excited to get my car back I will be racing on Sunday and hope to hit low 7s. Glad you all had a great experience!!

Pot kettle?Yeah I like to say that as often as it fits.
You have no idea what you are talking about Brian.
The problem with her car and the tune when it went to RPM was the idle only.Brians fix for that was to raise it 50 rpm.The shift points were lowered to 6250(basicly back to stock)from where I set them at 6450 other then that the rest of the tune WAS NOT CHANGED.The power level never went up.Last dyno we had was 321 it did 321 at rpm and back at our shop after that it did 322.The reason her car went slower after the RPM tune was simply the shift points being too low.You should stop acting like you know everything now Brian and have some respect for someone who is in this for the same reason you are.
This is me Sam speaking on my behalf only..BTW im no longer an employee at Fastech...Sean and Brian dont too much talk anymore.After Brian started doing Fastech special retunes for $250 someone may have been offended.He took advantage of the time he had HP tuners and Fastech didnt to try and make a little money off of Sean.Maybe thats just how I saw it.Please let me also mention that most of all that Brian knows about tuning came from Sean talking to him twice a day for hours then to have Brian use it aginst him.

I know this for a fact as I was right there at RPM when Sean and Brian were on the phone discussing ya'll .. Oh and your 1st mistake was buying parts because the ad says add 150+ HP !! Ha missed that one didnt it? And I'm not trying to bash Sean or Fastech in any way as a matter of a fact it was me that refered Alpha Q to them Sean is still a great guy in my book .. But you know good luck ..

Update: well it seems that the delay was due to some break problems when the linelock was installed and the Wheel speed sensor in the new 9". Sean is squaring it away for me and then we will get the last dyno pull on her and I will be able to post some numbers!!!

You worked good on my car as well!!

I have a 98 TA and when I was just a Bolt on car with a LS1 intake I pulled 335rwhp running pig rich in 100degree weather. So dont go popping off that Mellowyellow has no Idea what he is talking about. Oh yea hey u guys(u know who told me), so U cant use iriduim plugs with Nitrous Huh? Might wanna educate yourselves https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...hlight=iridiumThanks guys for chunking nearly $80 in plugs for me
And Also thanks for having my injectors nearly maxxed out and my knock tunred off, thats great for nitrousAnd from what i understood is that TAgirl had Drivability problems and mellow just said they could fix it for her but when she dynoed the car and RPM's dyno and they got all mad cause of the lower numbers, but its funny even after they fixed the drivablitlity problems and where mad about the dyno numbers they went back to Fastech and put down the same numbers as RPM's after they reinstalled the original tune and your calling RPM a Ripoff!! From what I heard U and your hubby are one of those never satisfied customers that never try and work anything out. Dont go around saying another shop is a Ripoff, thats what I took offense to cause my car is running like a raped ape.
