Did you get the slipping 5th gear figured out?

Made 4 passes at the 1/2 mile in Indy. I went 4-0. All passes were 168mph.

Which channel did you log, Vehicle Speed (SAE) or Driven Wheel Speed? Tried Driven Wheel Speed in mine and it does not work in standalone (I have the Pro), have to run the laptop.

168 is pretty cool, which tires did you run?

Yes I believe so. My tuner did what he does, I loaded his change and made four 1/2 mile pulls. Zero issues, besides traction, so I'm pretty happy.

I believe its Vehicle Speed SAE. I did not mess with your advice to get HP to show more than 158mph. Im sure its fine because I wont be trapping that high in the 1/4 or anywhere near that around town.

I need to make a new channel, I have two from my tuner, it seems each one has stuff I want to watch and play with. 17" et street R

Nice video!! I figured the trans shift issue was in the tune. Anyway, glad you got it sorted... your car is hauling the mail!!

Thanks guys, seems as though the 4-5 shift is a consistent problem with camaros and I'm sure the addition of my circle D needed some special attention. Planning on going back to the 1/4 next Friday to keep hunting those 9s.

Aftermath from the 1/2 mile.

Both front rotors warped. I was busying trying to turn my logger off instead of on the brakes and had to stand on them my 2nd race. I pulled the rotors and dropped them to my local machine shop to have them turned. $44 bucks later and Im picking them up tonight. My pads look fine still.

I destroyed my inner fender liners. Couple things lead to this.
1. Some what common issue with 6gens. Felt material.
2. ~29 inch tall front tires
3. Nosing over from standing on the brakes.

It ate through the driver abs harness and ruined my tire. Im repairing the harness, bought new liners from the dealer and ordered some nitto 555 g2 front tires.
Going from 245 45 20 down to 245 40 20 loses an inch of total height and will put me back down to factory size of ~27 inch diameter.

Machine shop only took 1mm off each rotor. I cleaned up the pads and put them back on.

Picked up the liners from the dealer. Pass side is straight forward. Driver side with the turbo and piping is a bit of a pain. My 2SS has aux cooling which means it has two small radiators in front of each front tire. We decided to remove the Driver side aux cooler to make room for the turbo kit. Cooling was unaffected. The liners still have the louvers for the rad. I was going to buy the non aux cooler liner for the driver but decided to get the one with the louvers. Here you can see a little aluminum cover made to keep tire debris from being thrown at the BOV. The cover and louvers do rub a bit on the cold piping but I think itll be OK. If it becomes an issue, I'll buy the drivers side non cooler liner and swap them out. I also wrapped the AC line with some heat protection and laid a sheet of heat protection between the turbo and the liner. Previously there was a little aluminum sheet screwed to the liner to keep it from getting hot near the turbo.

New Nittos came in and I dropped them off at the local tire shop to have them installed. Also adding gm tpms to my Welds. Hopefully i can use my dash readout and get rid of the ! warning light.

New tpms sensors work
27” 555s fit
Ready to start chasing that 9 again.
