more humidity on these turbo cars than heat will kill it. Me and my buddy were roll racing on Tuesday and I had MAJOR lag. My iat1's were 91degrees moving at 40mph.

The weather here is ridiculous. Some people in parts of the country have NEVER experienced heat AND humidity like we do here in the NE.

humidity blows chunks man, I like the NLS feature though so i will continue to cautiously use it, I think Im going to get the GM performance tune, I know its a waste of money and all but it keeps the warranty and I dont have to hide anything for warranty work and I can still NLS, cause I plan on it, lol. Wanted, how are those CIA parts you got? did you get a nice backfire NLS 1-2 and 2-3?

oh Its the only pops I ever here when driving this car like that, and I only hear them when I NLS. It sounds like a backfire to me. a loud crack of the exhaust. like a fire cracker.

I know this is a drag thread but ill just chime in on the NLS with a tune thing......I personally and professionally recommend against it. These cars can make basically whatever level of torque you want them too from like 2000rpm-redline, and an instant 350lbft shock of torque on a NLS is badpie for the F35, they just dont like it Even though it was originally designed for 2.4-3.8L engines, it still has never had a torque rating over over 260lbft.

Just so youve got a feeling for what kinda trans is designed to take that much power, the NVG3500 in 3/4ton(2500 series) trucks is rated at under 300lbft, and even the 6speed from the 300+hp Camaro and CTS cant handle that abuse, the only car transmissions GM offers that could are the T56 and TR6060 from the V8 cars.

Will it handle a 400hp/400tq LNF? sure, all day long, unless you wanna bang gears and NLS, if you do you need to stick with GM tunes or be prepared to fork over big bucks. It can easily cost $3500 to replace an F35. And i would say if you pop even one gear youre looking at a minimum repair bill of about $1400.
