Very true

You are correct there is a lot more to a strong running car than peak numbers.
No problem. I can tell your car is a very easy strong street able car to drive. It's not the fastest, but definitely fun and that's what makes a big difference.

What you have is basically three power levels in one car. Stock Gm stg 3(which I'm curious what it makes on your car), HOM mode which is over 300 whp, and then the No2 mode which will be well over 350 whp. All from simple easy cost effective bolt on's. Makes the op's question have meaning.

People get to strung up on stg kits this and that from Zzp and can't even think for themselves to put a nice set up together with out having to spend a ton of unnecessary money.

On 93 octane gas she should be only about 10whp less than when H.O.M. is engaged (290whp +/-).

Yep, it's nice having the three options of power levels. Keeps me from spending money on go fast parts, lol.

When I get bored with 290whp, I fill up with race gas for a week or so of fun. This way I never get bored with the car.

^^^Exactly my thinking. I think Gm Stg3 with the a/c enabled is perfect for a DD car.

I too run the full GMRS3 kit..i dont have A/C but will get that unlocked..I love the kit, I run race gas often so I use the H.O.M mode often..the car pulls hard and im very pleased with it..I also have full bolt ons..also for those wondering I had to have stage 2 before I did the GM stage 3..at one point I was daily driving it on race gas and currently have the rev limiter above 7k
