Damn I bet that's fun as ****!

So... If that's the "safe" tune, what's the "**** your pants" tune put out?

I didn't want to have a ragged edge tune, lol. This will be my dd for a longtime and wanted to not have to worry it. And the redline is now 6800 and it only dropped 1 hp from 6500-6800...so it might be set higher once we figure out what a stock bottom end with arp2000 rod bolts will hold up to.

That's pretty sweet! I bet it pulls really well.

I hope the day I swap a 6.0 into my S10 I can make right at 400hp with a street friendly cam and stall.

It only took once for me having to do the manual cutouts to order some race ready cutouts.

I really like how fast they worked on my friend's built gt500 and they have lasted for awhile. Can't wait to throw them on Friday.
