So you are increasing the boost in the tune? Was the boost increased in the 12.75 run?

Just think of what this engine could do in something with two doors and weighing about 800lbs less... Say something like a Mustang?
This might make me forget that I need a V8 to be happy?...

There are quite a few pretty cool people on the site but there are some ignorant morons that ruin it for everyone else.

I had a G8 GT try to keep me from passing him on the high way. When he saw me comming up on his left he sped up. I down shifted into 4th and was able to get infront of him anyway. It was funny though, because he wanted to get on my ass and then the car in front of me slammed there brakes so I reacted slammed mine, I heard his tire chirp (obviously his abs kicked in) he almost hit me. After I got around that car I want him off my ass so I down shifted this time into 3rd (was going about 65) and took off. He tried to keep up but I had put at least 10 car lengths on him by the time I reached about 135 in 5th. So I let off and he does the ricer blow by and then gets off at the next exit.
I got home and looked up the car it has a 6L LS3, so either he was to scared to drive over 110-115 or its gear or electronically limited.
