Default Thank You Redline Motorsports! Dyno run inside!!

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Redline Motorsports for the outstanding job they did on my tune today! Howard and the team are a great group of guys to deal with and they really know their stuff. I've been to several performance shops throughout the life of my C7 and by far they have the cleanest and most organized shop to date.

One of the things that stands out though far beyond the rest is that Howard is a down to earth guy that is passionate about what he does. You can tell right off the bat because he likes to explain everything (sometimes with analogies lol) so that you can understand why he does something a specific way or why something is a good or bad thing to do in a build.

I now have them to thank for the abundance of tires I am going to have to buy LOL

Many people have followed my build over the last several months and are familiar with the build so I won't bore you with the details. Simply put, its a built LT1 with a T-trim and meth injection.

Car put down a stout 828HP and 716TQ to the wheels on 93 and meth, with no E85!

Some other members I'd like to thank specifically, Higgs Boson, for providing the base tune that got the car drivable so I could drive it over to Redline, C7&7 for helping me pull the motor, and Ecobrick Bob for letting me use his HP Tuners suite. Couldn't have done it without you guys!

Here's the dyno sheet and below a video of the dyno pull, along with a handful of pictures of Redline's shop that I took while I was there.





















If you want your car tuned right, they are first class!

Congrats! That's awesome!

The cool part is that you did all of the work yourself.

Congrats on "your" build. I have a ton of respect for you doing all the work yourself. These engines aren't the old school engines (carb & distributor) that were relatively simple to pull part (no cradle dropping) and rebuild. Also, thanks for the multiple very detailed "how to" threads you made. I will be using your Alky install next week....can't wait to see your timeslips...

Been keeping up with ANT for a while now. Does this mean I need forged pistons and a T-trim now?!?!
