I like it ,its like hiding you nitrous setup with no bottle...nos is great but when you have the power on tap anytime...way better! turbo kick blacktop...

thanx guys. stealthy is what i was shooting for...especially since it sounds like a typical ls1 with headers and exhaust.

Have you got this beast out on the road yet?

**TNTramair** · 07-30-2008, 12:53 PM

not under normal driving. its been out but wasnt able to get into boost cause it was untuned. had to take it back off the road to fix a few little things and also to install some other items i had to put on. havent had the time to get on it and stay on it till its done so its been a long process. tuning should be done this week though and if everything goes well, ill have some idle and driving vids up shortly.

Take your time and get it tuned right ,i perfer SD tune they are a lot better,took me awhile to get it right but I made my whole setup,stealthy is great until the 50 mm tial BOV goes off then everyone looks

Thank you! it is definetly fun to drive. doesnt hit quite as hard as the nitrous but it sure wants to keep pulling through out the rpm range, something nitrous didnt do.

oh, well then you just need more boost

What methanol kit did you end up using?

no meth yet. im just running off the wastegates right now (7.5psi).in fact, on the dyno it only made it up to 5psi cause we couldnt load the dyno (something was wrong with it) but it still made 615rwhp on 5psi with a/f around 11.7. havent made my mind up yet on what Boost controller to go with. Which one would you recommend out of curiousity?

I'd say Alky.

i was refering to the boost controllers. Meth will come eventually aswell when i turn the boost up.

dont trust on the alky,depends on the kit a smart tuned car runs on the edge without that and it still only depends on the quality of gas,I have been running 12 psi for 2 years on the ls2 stock bottom end.I have 15 psi now and have a total 10 deg of total timming at WOT,so far so good no less then 93 octain goes into that tank and at the track i turn the timimg up and add some 110 octain.I have not tryed a alky system have some very smart freinds that have had them and they say the same thing.

**TNTramair** · 08-15-2008, 01:23 PM

yeah...i wouldnt use it as a crutch to get me a few more ponies, moreso for that added piece of mind. but i hear what your saying.

**nuttyprofessor** · 08-15-2008, 02:02 PM

sweet ride man.....love the sound of it

**qwkgto** · 08-15-2008, 03:15 PM

yes thats what I was trying to say.you need the air fuel closer to like 11,i like to see 10-10.5 on mine but ive got a few more pounds im running.nice thing about the GTO they have some sweet knock sensors they do work,then again the guy who tunes mine is a perfectionist,and im using a SD tune..we drive mine so we have just about every thing you will encounter in the road conditions figured in .
