Default Thanks alot to the guys at Gforce

Well I finally got my Fast 92/92 put in and took the car up to Gforce this morning for the tune. Mike and his guys fixed my gas tank issue, got my a/c blowing cold again, fixed an exhaust leak, installed a cutout, and got the car tuned all by lunchtime. Just wanted to say thanks for everything and I'm very happy with how the car's running now.

Before: LS1 intake
453/453
Now: Fast 92/92
512/502 cutout open

Damn, I didn't realize the Fast intakes made THAT much of a difference!

They sure do when you have a 408 with a big cam and heads!

Great numbers!

I don't think I've ever seen somebody be disappointed with G-Force's dyno numbers.

Those are some nice numbers for those heads, the trickflows are probably going to give you another 40-50rwhp. If fast doesnt come out with an intake soon, i will be switching to tfs. G force needs a dyno special. With mti gone now my lifetime tune is worthless, I think mike could get some better numbers out of it anyways.

Nope wasn't me. It was his first night out with the new TT setup and he called me and told me that he played with a c6 and a gto and mentioned the description of your car..I thought it sounded like you. Nice hearing from you.

Congrats on the new found power. Can't go wrong with Mike and the guys over there. Just watch your cigarettes if you're a smoker... That guy Robert is a crafty one...

Yeah, I could tell he had good power. What kind of power did he make? Cold weather is great for FI, bad for street tires See ya around!

I believe it made 513/468 on 9 lbs. But he is getting it tuned again in a couple weeks. See you around!

My MTI tune was less than impressive. I re-tuned the car with EFILive and picked up ~30HP.

Saw you out the other day Kody, car looked great and those are impressive numbers for sure. Makes me glad you went to see Mikey and the gang at G-Force for your car. Like everyone else said, can't go wrong.
