    I'm working on getting the facebook video embedded on here...until then...

    Ran a '98 LS1 Camaro, A4. Had some suspension work, a gear (3.73 I think he said), intake, exhaust.

    Anyways, case in point...I was in the GXP, Built trans with 3.69's, hai, 3" DP, exhaust, tune, poly mount.

    Dig wasnt too pretty. By 110-120 he had 2~ cars and creeping farther.

    20 roll was much better for me. Hung dead even until about 90~ when he started inching. Had half a car by 110~ when we shut it down.

    Overall, I was impressed with the tank. I thought it was going to be so much worse. Can't wait to get the bottle hooked up, my new front mount, and get it re-tuned...maybe with some traction I can go back out and reclaim a few W's.

    Some '98's are pigs. Ask him how he likes his rear seat access vs. yours.

    Surprised you hung that well. Bolt on Ellis Jaun's put a hurting on coyotes. Your car rolls out hard if you stuck with him.

    Did he just have a catback or full exhaust with headers? Those things come alive with long tubes.
    2000 GTP coupe. Wizaired intake. 3.4 pulley, Overkill tune, and Speed Daddy's waiting to be put on.

    Some 98's need love, and LTs don't fix that. But, who am I to say, after all. WTH do I know.

    98s with headers need a tune, and its harder to tune. They have metal fuel tanks which add to weight, and they have similar wiring to LT1s.

    As 02 ws6 said they're special.

    That. Also, bigger injectors than they need, and that awesome egr intake. I can fix it so as Bloo will hate life, however. LOL He will then begin speaking of his roomy 4 door wrrong wheel drive vehicle.

    I speak about how much I hate it all the time already...you'd just be adding fuel to the fire

    And I didn't look under the hood, whether it had headers or not...idk. Was loud. Had dumps. Race mods.

    Eh, I stood about ten feet from a jet car at full bore.

    Needless to say, my ears hate me.
