Just thought I'd post this up. Tell me what you think. The car is going to the muffler shop in a few days but thought I'd have a little fun anyway. Car is very rich. I really need a tune now. It was cutting out really badly but after a few passes down the drive way it seemed to clear up a lot. But it really needs a tune!

It looks like I made just a tick under 7.5lbs of boost and the car isn't even close to running right.
glad to see you got it running. now for a tune and vids of the car really running right

Whoa! That is some beast! 7 months? Better run that tank dry of that old gasoline and get a fresh tank.

When's the dyno coming?

The list in your other thread was too long. Did you happen to mention your compretion ratio? I'm assuming its lower than a stock LS6, and that 7.5 would be like 10 in my car :highfive:

how extensive was the work?
Check his other thread. But the short answer,,,,,,,everything but the diff :thumbsup:
CR should be around 9.2-9.4:1. Its not terribly low. It still has incredible throttle response. You just blip it and its right there. Of course that could also be because I have a 12lbs flywheel.

Most of my mods are in my sig but I have to many and I cant get them all in there. Thats all the engine mods I belive and a few suspension. I also did some trans work because I had a bad syncro, fixed some little things here and there.
