..and a supercharger too. So I finally picked up my car and love the feeling of the KB kicking in! Should have just done this to begin with instead of buying the stupid little things in the first place! I had told myself that this was going to be my last mod for the year, but now I want LTs and dyno tune (If anyone has some LTs lying around and wants to get rid of them, let me know). I am a little unhappy with the way it shifts though, so softly... almost worse than stock. Is this normal? I am guessing it is just the tune (running the KB mail tune). Well anyways, I got Autometer C2 Electric fuel pressure, Electric vacuum/boost, and Wideband A/F to go along with it in an SOS 3 gauge pillar.

Too bad the local track just closed down. Now I gotta find a place to try it out while staying within the legal constraints of this society:2g1c:!

Congrats!! :beer:

Not sure where you are located, but a good tune (which includes the trans shift points and firmness) will make a big difference.

What kind of power should you be making with this kit through an auto? I'd like to run against an auto and see the difference...

I am not. I already have a blower. And I don't need to be blown any more than that....I'm already deliriously happy. See, my teeth are clenched right now...

Dang!

Turning down a blow is like giving yourself a swirley! Sure, it'll let you clean yourself off, but wouldn't it be better if someone else did it?!?

sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!
The auto trans can be tuned, and it should be, to your liking. It's amazing what a tune can do for them. But get someone who KNOWS how to tune the S197 automatic.

I'm thinking about Strictly Performance out of Houston, TX. Heard nothing but good things about that shop. Anyone in here heard anything about Lethal Performance in San Antonio, TX. Located in Laredo, TX. I need to save up for my LTs and a smaller pulley before I go get tuned!

either 1 you will be very happy with a have a few friends who went there ( strickly ) and i may go there myself if this tune doesnt get corrected lol it would have been my first choice but a 5 hour drive on a canned turbo tune was not a good idea .........
