What? On a dyno? Stock tune? E85 will be more HP.

Not a dyno, but I was consistently .1 slower in the 1/8 mile on tuned 93, tho I rarely ran it.

HouseHold6 says no.

I probably would but this trans is a little funky. I want to get at least 10k on it before I do anything to be sure it isn't going to **** the bed on me.

Currently have 3,800 on it. Best time is 12.07 @ 116.46. Pretty sure with good air I can drop that .2. Better than that, I'll need to learn to launch this beast. It looks like launch control is only good for about a 1.7 60'.

My first mod will be a new x-pipe that eliminates the "resonators". Then E85 but that will require a tune.

GM is getting picky about mods. They've so far denied a warranty for a catch can and the lead Corvette engineer stated that was correct. So pretty much any mod is subject to losing your drive train warranty now.
