I was sworn to secrecy.

Been busy with the holiday/family stuff. Pictures I can post up later today since i cleaned up the engine bay and got all the dust off lol. Videos will have to wait since i haven't gotten far enough with the tuning.

Just food for thought. Also, if you are interested in a race sometime very soon, i would be happy to put off taking my engine apart for the build so we can line up! :)

I'm sure your GTP is running healthier than mine lol. I'm only on a 2.9" right now. I'm sure I could go down more but once I dial in the 2.9 and maximize the timing, I'll see if I am able to drop down to the 2.7" I have.

Pictures as promised.... Merry Christmas!

If they are high because the car is strong then it's awesome. If they are high due to other reasons then it's not cool.

*cough* *cough* saab

Looks good man!

Got the tune almost dialed in. Now with 6-10 inches of snow on the way I won't be able to finish until the weekend probably. So, videos this weekend. Wheel spin on the 1-2 shift on dry pavement at 50 mph is pretty interesting though lol. Glad the G8 is in the garage and the intrigue is on daily driver duty! haha

How many gears does it spin in the snow?

so you got the dyno done yet??? curious to hear some numbers

Not going to dyno for a little while now. New radiator started to leak on me so replacing it today. Then if this snow clears up on the roads i can finish the tune.
