lol but it's out of the original packaging! it's gotta depreciate like our cars right? cut it in half right away?

 

haha exactly

 

Mines beyond destroyed. I want to get my friend to weld the keyhole hole shut. Plus I need my pos trunk to stay on my car while I get the new one shaved and painted and stuff.

 

Hmmm well shoot me an offer. I'm open to suggestions! Lol

 

i posted an offer of 200 bucks in the other thread. of course that will be picked up. but not for a week or two.

 

so i decided that i wont be getting any performance mods. i just cant justify spending the money to make a car a little bit faster. when i go performance, it will be a turbo build. so im sticking to appearance only again.

 

Sounds smart to me Jordan.

Steve-ith?

 

OMFG why does technology hate me today!
Steve-ith. Please telephone call me when you see this.
My phone is being dramatic, and my Facebook app is being a Facebook app.
My interwebz is being painfully slow, and your laptop keeps magically opening stuff.

hahaha sounds like someone was surfing some **** sites and caught something!

 

Go back to sex ed. I can't catch anything from a website, and if I did. Happy early birthday.

and apparently I should just restart it sometimes.

 

I meant the computer! lol you clearly weren't even gonna get that one!

 

Oh no I got it. My world is much more fun remember

 

Some stuff will be of value to you. You get a catback, or something it's not like you have to throw it away when you go turbo. I might end up with exhaust, short shifter, mounts, etc. before I supercharge.

 

can't tell it's funny through a computer. plus my birthday isn't the 22nd. Just so ya know! lol

 

ya i thought about that, but the header would get tossed when i turbo. so ill spend the money on permanent mods

 

you can always sell them later to recoup costs

 

Everything he said was permanant .

Mounts are awesome, does the LE5 platform get any wheel hop?

Joel

 

i havent raced yet so i dunno. maybe on friday ill make it to the track.

 

lol according to outtamymind, they get as much as an lsj! lol

 

Baha! I know when your birthday is you dork. I am also determined to find out your middle name!

@mark please let me know if you can still make it tomorrow.

 

your best bet is to call his cell or work. he doesn't come on here much

 

He still checks it. I will call him tomorrow if he hasn't responded.

 

There's not as much power so we're far less likely to snap axles but we still hop pretty friggin bad.

 

Well after my track experience I recommend rotated mounts to all that wheel hop .

What's essentially going on is the TC's tune has set air load targets, which will result in the power;
the GMS1 does change things, and nothing you can do will put it below the rated 280hp/320tq - but items like a CAI might just make you hit those numbers at a different spot in your rpm band...

the "learn down" is where the ecm will essentially see that hte car is making too much power, and start cutting timing ect to bring it back to the original 260/260;
Officially GM says that the "learn down" has been disabled for GMS1 cars, but when you tie it into the airload tables, things can get a bit convoluted;
essentially, you will see gains from bolt-on's on a GMS1 car, but you will see more gains when running an after market tune that is setup taking into account for after market parts...

but the GMS1 will maintain your powertrain warranty... is that important to you?
the only way around is getting a "hidden tune"

well from Lethbridge (at this very moment) you have two options;
1) Race City (probably closing after this season) = 2 hour drive
2) Medicine Hate Drag way = 2 hours

From Calgary we have the following options after this season;
1) Medicine Hate Drag way = 3 hours
2) Castrol = 3 hours



that's becasue for most of the last decade the city council in Calgary has screwed with the operator - which limited his ability to make money, and keep up on track improvements;
if you don't make money, you have nothing to invest.
