One day at a time. I really should sell that bike, I have three similar bikes and really only ride the one. I should sell the one and just roll that money into cam/valvetrain. But, maybe I should keep the OEM cam/valvetrain and just consider the headers, cats and cat back.

A wise man would keep the stock exhaust for this year and just enjoy the added power, thus allowing me to find more next year with exhaust and re-tune and then again the following year with cam and valvetrain! The gift that keeps on giving!

I am going to try to stop at the blower package only. I swear, I am going to try!

I just so happen to have a little 28' flatbed car hauler.

Should you decide to get a tune on the dyno, I know you are in Pittsburgh, there is an excellent shop in Scottdale, PA that is only about an hour away from Pittsburgh.

what shop is this?

The guys name is John Sandzimer. He has his own shop with a mustang dyno. He has tuned my SS after putting headers and exhaust and CAI on it. 724-887-4405

Kenne Bell is saying that the tuner gets vin locked to the first car it's put on, is this verified true?

Sent from a Galaxy S3, far....far away.

I'm a big fan of having FI cars tuned on a loaded dyno (eddy current dyno jet or mustang dyno).

I tend to only dyno on dynojets for glory pulls.

I think he has a mustang dyno. He has all of the latest equipment and software. Not sure what you meant about being VIN locked. He did get into my CPU and make adjustments. One car that he could not tune was a new challenger because they have as you say locked the CPU. With SLP long tube headers, high flow cats, a complete SLP exhaust and a CAI system with the tune I am getting 411 HP at the wheels or about 477 at the crank. I guess from here other than a supercharger or more drastic mods horsepower will be harder to come by.

I plan on running this bad boy this year with 80s. I'll bap it if I start needing more fuel. Only thing is I have to upgrade all my pump wiring as this thing can draw a pretty good load.

What a beautiful Monday morning...

I was combing the forums and looking at a classic script Camaro emblem on the dash. Anyone have any insight? Anyone done this?

Thanks! PS flows sound awesome. Anyone want a set of OEM mufflers?
