That's my hot-side setup, coupled with a Borla GM exhaust system. My cold-side isn't quite as baller as yours, but I have the aFe intake + Soler ported TB + SoCal Porting ported IM.

You're my new hero. I think PTR will be my last bolt-on but will probably follow your lead and do a flex fuel tune. I'm out in September for the C8 driving school, so maybe I have my ECU unlocked before then. I'll ping you with a PM, as I'd like to ask you some questions if you don't mind....

I already have parts installed, but will probably add a PTR intake. Your shop won't perform a tune because I already have parts installed, or can you tune if I buy the PTR intake and tune through your company?

Don't waste your money on the PTR intake, it's worth 1-2 hp.

I will tune a simple bolt on car now if we didn't do the work but forced induction, cam, etc we will not offer tuning for. Instead of the PTR go with flex. You will actually gain something.

I’m wondering if the cost will go down if more people sign up for flex fuel tunes. I’m hoping someone breaks through the price barrier and makes it affordable for many more to enjoy!
Yeah....the ECU unlock is so costly.....$1500. Subtract that from $4000 then I will be in the ballpark. 😆

l.know for fact that 40 to 45 additional rwhp would probably put my car around 10.60s with my current bolt-ons plus the drag radials. The C8's are brutal off the line. If you ever get a chance, check youtube title: Corvette C8 z06 vs Corvette C8 on a tire. My car is the red mist in the far lane.

What was the DA on the 1/4 mile run with the Cordes tuned C8? Also, were there any other boltons aside from the flex-fuel tune and DRs? I ran 10.84 at 125.28 with boltons without a tune.

3800 DA. My car stock here did 11.8 @ 115/6.

Mods:
Haltech CAI, our mid pipes, flex tune, awe cat-back, drag radial, ARH headers (headers gained nothing)

Hi, a representative from Soler Performance here. Kinda late to the discussion.
On our website we have charts of the airflow gains you receive from our 95mm ported throttle body. I know it's not dyno or draggy results but they give you a good idea. We have seen the results of our ported throttle bodies alone show an increase in draggy's before and after installation. Though we do not promote that you get a gain in HP, people have seen gains after installing on dynos as well.
On the website under the "more" tab then on the video gallery, there are videos of people showing dyno and draggy results.
If you are interested in purchasing I have a 5% off discount code. TIF5P

So, what did it run with those mods? You said stock 11.8.

From the Video with the listed mods, he posted 10.99 at 123 with 1.67 60ft. Man, if you posted this time with a DA of 3800, you should run 10.40s with a -1000 DA and a 1.52 60ft. At 2799 DA, my car with ARHs, PTB, PIM, Halltech CAI, AWE CB and MT DRs, I posted an 11.44 at 120.22 with a 1.73 60ft. If correct, his car with same mods and a tune will be 4/10s quicker at a -1000 DA which I posted a 10.84 at this DA. That’s moving if affirm.

Picked up almost a second with external boltons and flex fuel tuning. That’s impressive!!!!!

Wow, you can actually do a cold start delete and V4 mode delete when you have the ECM unlocked and tuned with a HP tuner/......
