Well, sometimes I get carried away when there in an audience... :bb I took some pics last night. The lighting sucks but I am trying to fix 'em . Oh ya, I brought the car to work today and some guy just e-mailed me wanting to know where I go the wheels. Tony, you may have to quit your job to keep up!!!

Jon,
Ya, that's me. I ended up just taking it up there. They put 30# injectors in too and did some more tuning.

Awesome dale. I assume you saw my results. I swapped heads/cam/pulley on my car last week in my garage. The install really went smooth, fired up the first time and didn't throw a single code or stall. Just purrs like a kitten.

Made 393rwhp and I dont even have headers. Still have stock cats and mufflers too. :crazy: I think im gonna order LS1edit now so I can tune it too. :D

Yeah, I'm happy with the numbers considering I have a stock exhaust from the heads to the tail! I went with the thunder racing 227/224 cam. If you want to hear it idle, check it out here....my car sounds stock (I cruised through the parking lot saturday and people didnt know I had a cam): http://home.austin.rr.com/tyr/c5/TR227_idle.avi

The heads are GTP, and I had them flow tested against my old ARE heads. The GTP heads just dominated them. And yes, I dyno'd at colvins...I've dyno'd at colvins probably 20+ times now in the past 3 years
:conehead I think they are getting tired of me :jester
