I am guessing those dyno pulls were on "LOW" boost?



LOL!


Sounds mean Dennis. Can't wait to hear the final numbers that she lays down. Also, I remember you were telling me about two months ago on how she was staying stock for a while. LOL!!

No, not at all...just putting the Corsa axle back on for sound and a few HP up top...mostly for sound though.

Yeah, I know...gotta stay a little head of the curve. Plus Chris wouldn't leave me the hell alone...

I'll be posting the final results after the Corsa install and final tuning. Should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 520-540 RWHP with a very conservative tune, but sooooo much power under the curve. With a 3150 lb car, great gearing and that much power she is a BLAST to drive...!!

LOL...for some reason Gilbert I was thinking you were someone else...my bad. I was thinking you were the guy I see every once in awhile that has a very healthy LT1 Camaro at some of the GTG's...

I sold you my Bogarts off the SS...I remember now. Still got the Warrior I see... We all need to hook and up get a ride in, maybe up through 149 to Yankee Tavern or something... I still have the Warrior but bought an '06 FJR last year, an awesome bike... Heard you've done some tweekin' of your own.

That is one clean C5 you got there...!! Congrats...
