Dyno Tune = PCM tune.

Trifecta does mail order tunes...which are MEH, alrighttttt...but you aren't getting the full potential out of the car like a custom in car tune.

I'd however rather have an IN-CAR street tune...because a dyno is good for pushing max HP numbers, but you aren't going WOT all the time everywhere...and a street in car tune will help MPG's and driveability as well.

damn that sucks. i wish i could get to 300 to the wheels with little mods here and there

torque steer becomes worse the more HP you have with FWD so my opinion is the GXP should be left as is

They are big in the Cobalt/Ion world. A few around here use them and haven't complained yet. That's not to say their product is awesome, just an observation I have made.

I believe fembot is going to use them.

with the turbo kits and some mods , the torque steer is crazy at when u first go, but once it grabs its fine.. but i have still yet to even get the pedal to the floor lol

i have the cooler. i just have not put it on yet. how much you asking for the mount?

offer me up somthing, and give me ur adress/zip or postal code and i can get a shipping quote, its small and light weight shouldnt cost much

Sounds like a lot of worthless power if you can't get it to hook.

I know, because I've had plenty of 40 mph rolling burnouts.

Spinning =/= Winning.

do a lew tune. you know where to find it. when i firts go tmy gxp i thought the torque steer was insane, i dont even notice it anymore.

ive been researching on how to make a supercharger work with the gxp. if you relocated the battery and fuse box then you might have room. then there is the custom bracket to hold the s/c, the plumbing and then tuning. if you got the dough then it could work. maybe find a used procharger on ebay for around 1g.

So you're talking about Centrifugal blowers, I was under the impression we were discussing Roots type or Maggy blowers...
