yea its easier to blow your engine if you relie too much on meth and bump up your degrees of timing through the roof lol. but thats just one way of blowing your motor. bad tunning offcourse would be the main cause IMO

If you have a good tuner running meth would be safer. You can run more boost safely, add more timing safely, and it has a cooling effect in the combustion chamber. The only way it would be bad is if your tuner sucks, you let it run out of meth, or you dont check the lines everyonce in a while and it gets clogged.
i ran one of those 3.8 genesis today in the highway on my way to work and man those things are slow! i was expecting for him to give me a better fight. but we started around 60mph when he floored it and so did i. i took the balt up to 140mph when he was about 10+ cars behind lmao. when i slowed down he gave me thumbs up while i had a smile on my face haha

Because the one they sent me was warped and is making my idle total **** (and the car stall constantly at idle) and when Nick (BYT) and I emailed Aaron about it he basically said "yea, we know it'll warp up to .1 inches because of the way it's made, tough break". Needless to say I'm pretty pissed since I've been one of the only people who have backed them through all the BS on year the last year or so. I'm gonna belt sand it til it's even then make it work 'til I get a different one.
I guess they're on a mission to lose every customer. :/

Eric is right they guy that tuned him originally did not know how to tune cobalts according to BYT once he saw the tune file. Since then eic was retuned by BYT but has not been on a dyno since.
