You can pull a lot more power with a turbo. SC has no boost lag tho.

Keep checking there will be more. Speaking of which. Pacific raceways opens for teat and tune on Apr 16th. Also, There is a car club challenge on apr. 23th at the Bremerton drag strip. There will be a GM car club there that we can sign up with and race under. If you have a GM car or truck, you can race in the challenge.

Had a lot of fun with everybody today, thanks to all that came out.

Discovered that one of my sparkplugs had a broken insulator on the inside, likely creating garbage power for cylinder 4, also managed to blow up my MAP sensor lol.

Yeah, I knew the car was misfiring a bit under idle, just noticed the other day that it was misfiring while crusing as well, and not a delayed misfire, like a complete hicup on 1 cylinder. Definetly explains why it sounded so beastly ragged most of the day. So replaced the plugs and the car sounds like it should again, nice and smooth. Damn LNF eats plugs with the stock tune. This is the 3rd set in under 36k.

Think I blew the MAP sensor shortly before we stopped at that meats place. Really don't wanna take it to the dealer cause I'd have to put my catted DP back in I think. Also discovered a bunch of oil in my intake manifold, hoping its just a bunch from the PCV and not something more serious.

There's no way having a catless DP caused this or anything on my car causing this, there was a run of faulty sensors though, not sure about them doing warranty work though if you have removed emissions equipment though. The oil bit worries me too.
