I dont see there being room for a turbo upgrade and fighting the ECM monsters to make it run reliably.
GM really put this car together so no one could tamper with it or do aftermarket upgrades other than themselves. Talk about cornering the market. Any how, this DP is supposedly good for 15\15 at the wheels? That's about 20\20 at the brake\ crank, That should be power you'll feel and see on the speedo\tach, but most have said it's just a sound change. 50 hp is the comon incriment used to calculate drops\quicker 0-60 mph and quarter times. I don't mean to deviate so much, but on my 2006 GTO they had the LS2 from the vett with 400\400. I threw some bolt-ons in and the power went to 448\440 my quarter mi dropped by half a sec and my 0-60 mph also went from about 4.9 sec to 4.5 sec. Same can be said about the SS\TC. the HPT and PPC add about 40-50 hp and people are runing half a sec faster if not more and 3-5 mph faster than stock as compared to the mags tests. Lots of people are telling me that a DP will make a noticable improvement in power from the mid and upper ends of the rpms. What do the rest of you think? I'm not adding exhausat as it's perfectly good till 360+ hp so I'm told. Feel free to add to this Synapse.
My dash hawk says I went from stock 0-60 in 5.68 sec with PPC it's 5.1 sec. with spinning tires, so say about 4.9 sec with some grip. This is huge. Keedp the goodies coming Synapse.

I may not be getting my car till very end September/early October. Just ordered it yesterday. Guess I'll order this now for the good price and leave it uninstalled until about 1000 miles lol.
