Fuses pulled. We'll see what happens in the morning.

How come you don't do your runs in Sport mode?

Theirs no difference . Both start in first gear if you punch it anyway. Round track racing is what sport mode is for. I don't see any advantage.

I know you guys are happy with this solution, however you guys should not have to be pulling fuses to make your Camaro's faster. GM should reprogram the chip so it works properly no matter what fuel is used..

Wish you could have driven it before. You'll be able to when we get there.


No, I don't want to drive the ZR1 but maybe a ride.

Well, pulling the fuses did nothing for me. I had suspected that my car wasn't really slow anyway. I am happy for those that are getting the power they thought they should be getting! L99's represent!

Did I miss something or did I remember the A6 started in second unless you manually put it in first using the paddle shifters?

Starts in Second in theory in D. Starts in First if using S. Now I am not sure about D but alot of folks say that is the way it is. S is alot better to drive in since the shifts are sportier and if you need to down shift quickly you are already there and just hit the paddle.

how long did you leave them pulled for? jw. and you might not have had anything going wrong with yours either.
