April 1st is too early to hit the track. Damn asphalt will still be cold ... I could see a lot of axles breaking that day.

What motor is in the Grand Am? and which charger kit did he use?

Its my car follow this link to my cardomain: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2316217/1

It may be cold on april first, but NO ONE will break any axles, trust me. There will not be enough traction to hook well enough to break axles.

Damn that's one wicked Grand Am GT Supercharged .

Have you ever dyno'd the car? If so, what numbers does she pump out? I'm hoping myself to get about 200whp out of my supercharged M45 cavalier this year.

You should go to TAG Racecraft in Oakville for dynoing. Good shop. They could also tune that motor I believe (Almost sure HPTuners will work with that model 3400). Pretty sweet for sure. Looks like about the same I'm projecting to make myself. Just enough to keep up and/or dust a stock SS/SC

Yeah its supported ... definitely talk to Mase and Mel at TAG, they'll help you out. I myself am going in a few weeks. I've been waiting on new tires and a few small items to finish up before I hit the dyno and get street tuned.

Are they really good with GM? The only thing that worries me is when you have a shop like that that does all kinds of cars that they will not be well versed in my application, especially being one of very few boosted GA's.

Does anyone know what they charge for a dyno tuning session?

They've been working on a lot of cobalt ss/sc's as of late. I know I'm the first cay going there to get tuned. The guys are great and I don't think I'd go anywhere else but to TAG.

Not sure of the price, but give them a call or PM.
