Nope, since I kinda rushed them, and they were doing lots of stuff (Z06 exhaust install, MGW shifter w/ "Man switch," and fixing my radar detector mount) in only 4 days. But I am assuming the typical 380RWHP stock.

Only relevant mod would be Z06 exhaust manis, downpipes, and H-pipes w/ stock GS NPP. Andy, and other tuners, have told me it is a worthwhile mod. We'll call it 1/2 headers. Of course the 3.6" pulley could be considered a mod.

That's rough! With all that octane! Did your tuner back way off of the timing because of the ambient heat?

I was at 610, but Andy dialed it down a bit. He thinks 650 would be cake with meth. Then again, he is tuning in cool Ventura, CA.

Dyno numbers don't mean squat. Wouldn't sorry about it. Albert's C5 in El Paso runs an incredible 9.1 in a high elevation with a T on a stock motor.
