Default Dr. Phil is da man

I know everyone already knows this but he really is. I just got back from picking my car up in Michigan and drove to Nashville Tn with not a single problem on my new TTIx setup. The car has a 2 bar SD tune. The car runs smooth as silk and sounds great. Left my same 408 iron block, same 6liter heads, and cam (not a turbo cam or supercharger cam) in and the car put down 625rwhp 619rwtq on 10lbs through the auto and 778rwhp and 795rwtq i think on 15lbs pump gas i couldnt be happier going to the track on the 11th and gonna give it my best. Thanks again Phil for an awesome job and making it fun again

Good stuff. I told you there was no comparison between turbos and a supercharger.

The added torque from the 408 must be wicked.

Grats and welcome to the turbo club.

Congrats on your car, it must be sick! I am sure turbos are awesome. Phil is the BEST! He is tuning my car. I am having issues after issues after issues with my car (mechanical problems due to idiots here who can't work on a Vette) and he is always there to help me out. He tuned my car, a 408 with a P1SC. The cam is a 238/242 on 115 LSA. The car drives like stock. I am serious. You can just here the cam lope but basically, you can daily drive the car. Phil is awesome.

PS Thanks again Phil, as you said, I will be back in a few weeks ... hopefully a little earlier

Congrats on your build with Dr. Phil! Good luck with track times and all you end up doing with your car. Phil sent my car back to me in March and I have had NOT ONE issue with it!!!! I'm very happy with the build and I'm sure you will be as well.

I can believe you drove straight home, specially with all the scenic touring you did around here!.

Keep the shiny side up and enjoy it.

Phil

PS To the rest of you, thanks for the kind words, you have all been placed on the ignore list .
