Man the things we do for our cars!!!
Mike and Andy were telling me about what happened to your car. As soon as I mentioned "Mr. Tailshaft", they knew exactly who i was talking about. I saw Andy leave the shop in his 427 C6 and I couldn't believe how that thing moved. It's got wicked acceleration.

They use LS1 Edit, but its registered to A&A. So you don't get access!
They will use HP if you purchase the software and bring it in with you.

Yeah it was an "Experience" anyways almost done with the car should pick it up again tomorrow 3 tranny rebuilds later. Those Supercharged 427's are MEAN. I hope to have the car back down there this week to finish up the dynotune.

Does anybody know if the $400 special is still going on? For you guys that got it, did you have to mention this site or the special, or did they automatically quote you the special price?

I called Andy before going to his shop and asked if the special was still going. According to Andy, the special was up until the last day in March. Give him a call anyways. It doesn't hurt to ask. He's a helluva cool guy.
