Exclamation Track Results are in for 2010 CAMARO SS!!

Ok guys, took the car out to Baytown, Tx last night to test our prototype cold air induction system. We did not have a weather station but I can tell you the humidity was high like always in the Houston summers. Temperatures were around 85* at night time. We made a total of 9 passes. 3 stock, 3 tune only, and 3 LMR CAI&TUNE. Here are the averages:

STOCK- 13.46 @109.01

TUNE ONLY- 13.25 @109.88

LMR CAI & TUNE- 13.09 @110.82


Worst pass of the night was a 13.56 and Best pass of the night was 13.03 @111.14.

Will start mass production of our cold air induction systems on Monday. Feel free to email me or just give me a call at the shop to order yours TODAY!

Nice! I have been looking forward to seeing real world track times from these cars. Was this an auto or manual?

What kind of 60' times were you guys getting? And how hard was it to launch this car? Any wheel hop?

Nice results with the air intake and tune, BTW. So close to 12's.

I'm also interested in the 60' times and how hard you were able to launch it.

I was there. I saw all your passes down to 13.17. I was in the staging lanes when you made the 13.12 pass. I videoed 3 or 4 of your runs. I got a video of the 13.17 pass. It was about 80-81 on your first pass and 79 degrees on your next 2 passes. Your 13.12 was at 78 degrees. Yes it was humid and hot as usual.

The car is so quiet on the launch and under power, IMO.

They are probably in the 2.3 range for 60 foot times. If you could bolt up a set of drag radials and get some 1.8 60 foot times it should do 12.7's stock easily, then 12.5's with CIA and tune in that weather and that is warm conditions.

This is very promising, I wonder how full exhaust would compliment the cai and tune up?

1.8 mph with a tune and cold air kit and lowering temps? ET looks good but trap speed is the Horsepower indacater.

If you wanted to evaluate your product, you should have made some passes with your CAI before tuning. This way you would have an accurate before and after comparison. And you really should post the 60' times for each run so it doesn't look like you might have been babying it on the "stock" passes in order to make your product look like it gained more than it did.

X2 on that. I get tired of shops taking every effort to make there parts look good. This type of testing of new parts OR tunes should be done one step at a time. And only one change at a time.

I know the LS2s/LS7s slowed down a bunch in hot weather, computer related.

I guess they kind of did to one change at a time...the tune being the first. I think they're also advertizing the tune work not just the CAI...but I agree I'd like to see some numbers with just the CAI.
