any questions?? (except for dyno sheets, they will be up later)
What in general was done with the programing? Simply advancing the timing or was it more involved than that?

thank you for reading :P

i have intake, header, dp, and exhaust...
we advanced the timing, changed the afr, removed pe delay, made the fans turn on more aggresivly, and removed the speed governer.
you have to rem that these dyno #'s are corrected numbers...the #s that showed (and that most will compare with) were 154 whp

mels car (the auto) will be worked on soon....as well as the 2007

Did you mean to say skeptics? I would like to believe this but with no pictures and claims you create skeptics out of some people...

Very interesting though Should be interesting when they get around to the autos

All that proves is they removed the speed governor and the gears are limiting it to 162mph if there wasn't a load or any of that on it. i know there is no way in hell a close to stock 2.2 balt would reach that on the road

test is the correct word because at some point "something" will break.

Notice how the hp keeps rising throughout the power band, especially past 5000k. After 5/5.5k the stock tune seems to fall on its ass but this tune corrects this. This power curve is much like the one you get when you install a 2.4 intake manifold where the power keeps climbing, but in that case at the expensive of some power down low. I REALLY want to see what a tune can do to a car with the 2.4 intake manifold. If the tune can correct the power loss around 3,000k then tuning + 2.4 intake manifold may be a match made in heaven.

Thats the match I'm hoping for.
