Figured that would be the case. Maybe I'll conveniently forget my laptop tomorrow so I can't post results. Will have to verify with Vararam if I can post results or if they want to do it.

I do need to make something clear though:

There will be multiple runs done over the course of many hours. We need baseline stock numbers (on that dyno) plus runs for the Vararam intake. We also need to factor in ECM learn time/miles between intake changes plus cool down time between runs.

Ick, that doesn't sound like fun. :(

My comment was aimed at wlee32 from an earlier exchange in this thread (starting around post 291).

Oh, I know y'all are following this thread....

All I've got to say is that the numbers on the dyno screen tomorrow sure as heck better reflect what I feel when I'm driving this car or else I need to just hand over the keys and buy a Cruze.

Be cool if they had a VBOX or even a KAT Matrix 3. Do several 0 - 60 runs and average them. Then after all dynos and some run time, do more 0 - 60 runs making sure to have the meter mounted EXACTLY the same (moving the KAT matrix just a bit can really alter the results).

I don't think you could take the times seriously, it might be off a bit, but at least you COULD see the difference between then base runs and after runs.

Would be interesting info to have for sure but I think I'll have to let someone with an automatic do that. The AY6 manual trans is a piece of crap when it comes 2nd gear. I've already had my transmission replaced once and after 15k miles on the new one, 2nd gear is starting to act up again. 0-60 runs are unpredictable when you aren't sure if the 1-2 shift is going to be smooth or grind like hell.
