We need to have everyone start contacting these guys and ask for a system for the Camaro.

So far no one has been able to point to specific stuff he hasn't been able to do. I was suprised at how fast he was able to identify the problem with using the tunes for the STS on my twin turbo setup and fix it. He's got more work to do, but he hasn't even hinted at it being a problem. Anybody that can get 90 RWHP out of 4.5 psi in about 30 minutes is tops with me.

We shouldn't forget that he does more than just tune the V6. It is my understanding that he has written a lot of the code that HP uses for it's Chevy tunes. The guy knows what he's doing. He just has a different business model than others.

That CTS supercharger costs like 12 grand. Really want that? lol. I'd rather go turbos.

And yeah, Vince's tune is a true tune. Don't know what people are talking about.. just because it's not in handheld form, doesnt mean its not a true tune lol.

i hear everyones ideas on the supercharges and turbos...what about someone like magnacharger stepping up the way they have for the 8....plus it would replace the ugly intake when the cover is off...thoughts?

Just because they made one in 2009 does not mean it is available to the public today. Go find it on their website and let us know what you find.

NOTHING.

Yeah, I called them once and left a VM but no one called back. I think they canned the project.

We are taking orders for the "Gretchen" twin turbo kit!

WOW to have your own turbo kit named after you..........

Now if I could just find that damn money tree.

GretchenGotGrowl · 02-24-2011, 04:23 PM

Yeah, that's a surprise. If that girl with the green eyes from college could see me now

! Don't think my GF is going to like this

On a serious note I just spoke to SC2150 and the price is for the good turbos. I'll let him fill everyoune in on the details. I still have some work to do (measurements and drawings), but it all sounded good to me. Gretchen is torn apart right noand I can't get her to a lift. Long story short, I stripped the threads on a part he cusom made so I'm trying to get a local replacement. Hopefully I'll get that Saturday.

HERE IS HOW ALL OF YOU CAN HELP. He needs a donor car with stock manifolds to do the first install on. He is offering do do this one for half price. Spread the word and keep an eye out for either a new thread or an update to the Gretchen Screams thread to coordinate with him.
