Default Thanks Simple Quick!

Daniel @ SQR took care of my motor R&R and also put an F13 in my TSP 347 and assembled my heads before installing them, not to mention installing lowering springs, motor mounts, exhaust tips, and a catch can all while my car was up at his shop. Also helped swap out my Moser 9" w/Brandon's stock ten bolt. It turned out great and puts down some wicked power. Doc tuned it using Speed Density, and it runs like a champ. No issues starting, and no issues driving it in traffic or in low RPMs. Pulls like a bat out of hell too, great power on the street, which is right where I wanted it.

Just wanted to post up a few good words about the quality of work they're doin over there. Here's a graph of my car right after they finished tuning it - only had 700 miles on it.

Thanks guys!

To answer some questions, she idles perfect. You can definitely tell there is a cam in there, as I have one of the loudest y-pipe setups you can get and still keep a catback and sound good - Stepped Kooks, Kooks ORY and GMMG. However she idles around 800 and doesn't stumble at all. She dips a little when you come to a stop, but only drops a little - nothing crazy at all.

Patrick, the torque is crazy, but I still have a stock rear end so I can't bust on it too hard. After I move thats the first thing that I'll be saving up for - a new 9". It needs some more gearing anyhow, the 3.89 would be perfect - thats what I ran before. Right now she'll bust the tires loose at just about any speed, its great. I'm going to dyno her again on the March dyno day @ SQR hopefully, we'll see if she's loosened up any - I doubt it - but who knows. I think about about 5k miles the power will go up a little.

Yea, the car was down for a few months as I tried to get the best deals I could - on a tight budget - but Daniel was real understanding about that.

Chris - just give me a shout sometime man, I'm pretty busy w/work now @ the new job but we can find a time to get together and you can check her out. I may even be selling the GMMG after I get my SLP dual/dual fixed up - we'll see how it sounds.

Brandon - we can swap cars for a day any time
