Hahaha, just messing, stupid dealerships. Always trying to screw you over. Hope they fix it for ya and don't void your warranty!

Well they verified my calibration as stock, so they are going to honor the warranty. The idiots are replacing the entire turbo though..... I mean I am fine with this, but I heard everything from, well ya see you got the GM Stage 2 upgrade here. *points at a map sensor* Those connectors are not stock. I then pulled out the installation paperwork, and told him this is the stage one, and this was installed by a chevrolet dealership. I then explained to him the only thing increasing the airflow in my car is the GMS1 upgrade....

My service manager got everything squared away though, looks like im getting a whole new turbo.... Free oil change and coolant flush I guess

I take it that theres only 20-30 WHP to be gained from intake, charge pipes, fmic, and exhaust? The reason I say this is because there have been LNF's with a E tune only put down 310.

Honestly I don't know? It depends on the tune really. Im sure vince could squeeze more out of the tune if he wants to. Its a pretty conservative tune.

Makes sense then. Nick's put down 350 on a 1:1 Term tune before we started his engine build and turbo swap. I think thats pretty close to maxing out without going ******* crazy on the tune.

Yeah I don't wanna get crazy with it but I think it'll handle a lil more timing.

Your wide-band in your car is telling a different story. Was this a shop sniffer?

Pretty sure we should be in the low 13's. The sniffer runs way lean though. Are you going to be doing bolt ons on your sedan Drew?

nope, I ran a 12.9 here at 3200ft with ab mod and tune only. I imagine with the catless DP, Dialed in K&N SRI, and an E85 50/50 mix, I should hit a 12.5 in phoenix. maybe a 12.7 here. I am happy with that.
