Chris don't want none of the TA...at least from a dig, he don't.
HP doesn't = low ET's

TXCAMSS knows the car and what it has in it...
to others it's just a bolt on 346ci cam only car.

We are making a video tonight of the neon and my buddies 2007 z06.
The neon put down 518 fwhp on pump gas.
Should be rather interesting.

I agree, I asked him why AMS dyno'ed it with HP vs. MPH.
Seemed kinda strange to me.

i'll have to look at my RPM's in my neon today during lunch, then i can tell from the dyno sheet where Chris's neon makes power at...

so far, looks like a dyno queen.

LOL, that car/motor/turbo/stand alone EMS is anything but stock.
I seriously doubt your powerband is the SAME as his.


He has one graph that shows RPM's that I will try to take a picture of today
when he comes over to help clarify the misconception.
I'll try to post the video of him and the z06 as well for everyone.

A gt35r will not make 700+ to my knowledge, let alone 500+ on pump gas.

He probably has better tires on those rims. It's fwd. When racing the good tires go up front, not out back .

It's running a gt37. I'm surprised it made that power at 35 psi. I expected alot higher boost.
