Mike Norris is a STUD!
My buddy took his blown C5 down there that had multiple problems and they were able to get it tuned to where it needs to be. It now idles right and there isn't any detonation. Just a nice clean power curve.
Mike has the LS1 edit program now - anyone in the south that needs a tune or other engine work should give him a call.

Re: Mike Norris is a STUD! (Joecooool)
Would that make Mikey the Ron Jeremy of motorsports?! LOL :)
Joecooool, next time your buddy can spend some time in Orlando we'd like to do some more tweaking to the timing on the highway rather than the dyno. I looked at the data more closely last night at home and taking into account the behavior on the road I believe we can get a bit more timing in there without any issues. The thermal behavior definitely changed (for the better) even without any type of intercooler when moving from the dyno to the street.
Glad he was happy with the results!

Hey All,
Thanks for the more than kind words and glad to help out. Scared me at first at the title :D
Like Tim said, we would like to have that car back for a couple days to try a few more things on the dyno and more so on the road. Preferably in hot weather. Nice little package for sure.
Later :cheers:
Mike
