Default Tuning at Strictly Performance

I'll start by saying Rob is a great guy. He went out of his way on his birthday to drag my *** over town and tune my car great. I got some good number's out of it and I am very pleased with the overall experience.

Here is some number's:

All motor: 384HP/353TQ

Unjetted Dry N2O Shot: 520HP/600TQ (At only 5500 RPM )

All motor A/F 12.3:1.

The car is a 2000 Formula M6 with the following:

Hooker LT's, Hooker ORY, Hooker Catback, MTI Lid, LS6 Intake, Granatelli MAF, NOS Dry Shot System 5177, and Crane N2O Grind Cam 230/236 .600/.600 114 LSA (So-so motor but as you can see ***** out with some juice).


On the motor the car ran great. When we did some Unjetted shots, the car was leaning out too much, so we were only able to bring it up to 5500 RPM. We tried the 125 Jets and made 440HP/519TQ, but again having trouble with enough fuel getting there. We ended up not tuning the Dry shot and going for the best motor tune possible. I will be going back here hopefully soon with a wet kit this time, and some injectors and a pump.

Overall great experience, nice people, and great tuning!

Didn't think so, I thought I remembered you saying headers only, but in my old age I could have forgot.

I bet the Hooker sounds even better now!

I had everything then as I do now minus the cam and intake.

At idle it sounds not too bad, and WOT at 6800 RPM its screamin'.
