Carlisle is two weeks away which I assume is your deadline! I'll be there with my car so look out for me in the 93-02 modified section if you go. I think the last time I saw your car there was when my car was a v6

Yup, Carlisle us my deadline. If she gets there, she'll only have a base tune with probably 5 lbs of boost. I can't make it for a dyno tune before then. I just want to be able to drive there, not be trailered there.

Almost ready to fire! She's fighting us as much as possible right now though, but she won't win!

I did not see where you talked about goals? Max boost or what you think you will hit HP wise. The sloppy guys in Allentown just tuned a 3800 junkyard build. I think this their second go around with this car. I am not comparing builds just thought its fun to see what some people do with their spare time. Used V8 valve springs,,, lol that is the first thing the V8 guys change cause they are junk new. Not sure how good Matt is with 3800's but his bone stock 245,000 miles 6.0 is hitting 800+ wheel hp.

The only goal right now is to have her running on her own by friday. I have no idea what hp she'll be at. I originally intended on 10 psi, but now that everything had to be replaced and upgraded, I'm going with about 15 psi. Won't get any real numbers until the trans is fixed and can get a dyno tune. Aiming for beginning of August for that.
