Dyno tune yesterday was fun. Fellow camaro5 member and SS owner "Alvin" from PCM for less hooked me up with a sweet custom tune. Thanks AMIGO!

BEFORE mods and tune: 386 HP and 385 Ft Lbs tq
AFTER Mods plus PCM tune: 415 HP and 416 Ft Lbs tq

--- ffwd to 1 minute on the vid to get to the 2 dyno pulls. Apparantly the fuel pump has to reset upon driving after a tune, so the startup is iffy

NICE!

Any chance you can get some drive by and in-cabin video some time?

MBRP is still at the top of my list. It's going to be a toss up between MBRP and 3" Magnaflow.

Yeah,

Its supposed to be freezing rain tonight and tomorrow, but once the weather clears this weekend I will get some drive by shots with my bro's HD flip cam and I'll do some in-cabin as well. Shoot, just come to Charlotte and I'll take you for a spin

Alvin is the MAN-- so knowedgeable regarding LSx motors. I'm gonna probably get his buddies at Tick performance do my Magnacharger/CAM next winter.

i might need to go talk to him about tuning my camaro after i get a couple mods done, i love the tune on my truck. it's not fast by no means, but when he upgraded the shift stiffness and took torque management off it was worth it, how much did the dyno tune run ya if ya don't mind me askin??? i'm like you are now i really just want the basic i/h/e tune.

It sounds really good. Congratulations a job well done.

Will the original factory driveshaft tunnel brace still fit with the MBRP exhaust set up?
This would clear up some unanswered questions. Just wondering about clearance and if the replacement that MBRP provides is required by fit to be used.

I'm not sure-- Perhaps contacting the guys at MBRP would give you your answer. I used MBRP's black brace as it looks great and functions as well if not better than the stock brace.

Just buy me a BMR brace for my birthday and I'll install it and let you know if it fits.
