It's slightly completely useless on the street unless you are going to go fast from light to light. I put it in M mode, 4th HUD screen with the G meter, M1(Manual 1, the hear the car was in), pretty much had to nearly get 4000 RPM before the shift lights appeared and told me to shift. It's only useful on the track or down the strip. On the street at 4000 RPM you already going 30-45MPH from the light when it tells to shift to 2nd and you're doing the speed limit here by then. Then I got on the expressway and downshifted back to 1st then did it again and only got it to 3rd hear and I was doing 80-85 by then so I brought the speed back down.

Going to start emailing and PM people tomorrow. Someone give me the guy in Arkansas email or website. Been googling LS tuning and memphis and read stories about people blowing their engines by running lean off a messed up tune. I just want it done right and not have any worries. I'm even going to email some guys at dynospeed for quotes and the best bang for the buck. Still don't know what brand I will be going with. My personal preference Is ARH because they are looked at as the best and kooks follow, stainless work sounds good. Like I said I guess the name is just bothering me. Going to go with the 2" system w/O cats. Hopefully it doesn't rain tomorrow so I can hang with you guys and go to MIR to do a few runs. It is a good chance of rain tomorrow so we will just have to see.

OAN: going to research transmission flushes and rear diff flush on the ZL1. It's time for some maintenance. Transmission fluids, and rear diff fluids. BG 44K comes in either today or Friday to clean the fuel system. Also depending on the weather, I may take my car to Serra and get them to check out why sometimes I smell burning oil or sometype of fluid burning but it smells like oil. Get them to check it out before I get to Modding. No oil leaking on the garage floor but only a smell from time to time. Going to research that as well tomorrow before going out there. I will create the Instagram for the club tomorrow. Someone text me the club logo pic so that I can use it as a profile picture. Goodnight all

On second thought I may just clean my engine bay thoroughly because I feel like I'll be wasting time at Serra when the smell is random

The Arkansas guy is Rhino79 aka Ryan Stevens. Name of the company is Gwatney Performance Innovations. Great guy, very knowledgeable, very good tuner, ONLY person who will ever tune my car.

His Website

And honestly...on headers...I would just get yourself a good set of Kooks or Stainless Works. ARH is good but they can be overpriced. No header is going to perform significantly better than another....is it worth 200 bucks to you for the name and 1-2 rwhp (if there's even a difference)? I guess that's a decision you have to make. If you want a good price, I have purchased almost ALL of my performance parts from Maryland Speed. They are a good vendor, ship quickly, and yes, the owner can be a little abrasive at times but he has good values and is a good person. He will cut you a deal to whatever he can and continue to do that for any parts you purchase.
