Thanks for showing the numbers, only like 2 other dyno vids out there but didn't show them.

Be interesting to see when the hp fuel pump runs out of juice

Suitcase Edition!!!! Wheels look awesome on the driver side and stupid on the passenger side

Just like my old '95 Ford Probe GT!

So any increase in engine noise perceptible with the cover off? I assume it's there to diminish DI injector noise?

HRE's are scheduled to ship week of October 21st. Should have that issue taken care of by the time our Heads/Cam package is finished and available to customers.

All I can say is WOW, This care drives so nice, especially with all the different driving options.

LMR Proprietary CNC program and custom grind cam shaft testing will began next week.

After our basic packages are complete we will start on our Turbo System for those looking at 1000 plus HP packages.

Cool stuff I have no doubt heads/cam numbers will be very very impressive.

Initial tuning shows gains of 15rwhp and 19rwtq on a completely bone stock C7. Stay tuned, next up is a cold air intake!

Steve, Josh, we look forward to another busy year of supplying the LMR builds.

The C7 is going to be awesome with some mods.
