Thank you Brett for dealing with me and my excessive questioning... before purchase, during installation and after (tuning part). Im definitely looking forward to those heads.
Great gains! Also you may have the best pic of a black CA6 SS I have seen. Mine look alot like yours with my 1LE replica wheels, but my pics never turn out. Black cars look so much better in person.

Are you going to track your 1LE?

Mods are:
PRAY Performance ported stock IM/TB
Roto-fab CAI w/ dry filter
Kooks 1 7/8" catted headers
EFI Tuning Flex Fuel kit 75% E
PRAY Performance Tuning
Next step is PRAY Performance ported heads and 500+rw.

Attachment 904958
Is the difference between the two dyno runs just the tunes, or were the mods stacked on after the baseline?

Base line is stock. Final is with the mods listed and tuned.

Impressive gains! Really cool doing the tune on a remote dyno with such great results.

I often work projects remotely on our clients servers. It lets me work anywhere without wasted time traveling the globe. The power of the Internet.

Heads are in the future. Don't think we are going to do a cam though.

That's a very strong stock dyno, isn't it?

But on the other hand, I believe you should just look at gains and not the raw HP & TQ numbers because of the variables between dynos??

I think those are average numbers on an honest dyno for a M6 car.

Gains are what matter. Application of gains is what really matters.

Gleider's issue now is traction. He can't hook now in his roll races in 2nd so he has to use 3rd and start way to low.

Thanks you very much. I have lots of pictures ideas but really dont know hownto use a professional camera. That picture in my signits actually taken with my iPhone as 90 of the ones on my IG.

I do plan on tracking my car. So far ive only been able to do, drag events and auto X (which i didnt like too much) but prepping slowly for the road course (need new front tires) and then changing brake fluids and i should be ready to go

Awesome build!! It’s crazy how well pray can bring all the pieces together to really make these cars work!
I have the heads cam header version of your build and some new 295 re71 shoes are going on the stock wheels Will let you know how much difference that makes in getting power down. I’m trying those on the stock wheels first as i can’t decide what option is best in 18 and 19 inch wheels for autocross. Hopefully apex will make some 18x10.5 and 18x12 that will fit without spacers so BFg rivals can be used
One last thought about your next step up in the build. Have you and pray thought about adding Just his ported heads to the mix without headers. Would be totally ba stealth build that looks and sounds completely stock but would absolutely shred!! Probably a few hundred more for the heads over headers and not easily reversible but it would be so cool to see absolutely how much could be brought out with stock exhaust and you would be able to keep the better sound of the stock exhaust. I went with headers on mine because i had to with the cam but to me the stock exhaust sounds way better. All of the header cars sound tinny and unrefined except slick5 which has the borla type s on his (I’m still waiting on my type s to show up)
Anywho I will let u know if the tires make much difference (even 3rd gear rolls are a joke now). Is going to be a lot of fun getting these babies dialed in

Gleider's car already has headers but I do have a 1LE running around with just the ported top end and stock exhaust and we put down mid 470's on my dyno. Car rolls out. Looks dead stock minus the CAI from the out side.

Good luck with the tires on your car. I hope they work out.

Bro, are you freaking serious? My buddy down the street got caught up in the same crap with his Chevy SS. Still hasn't seen his stuff and it has been months. Can you cancel? When you get them, come on back for the install and retune.
