Just ordered:
-new GM "strong" MAF (I've heard this makes a big difference on the 2010, they have a pretty rough idle.
-vararam (no tune. Will swap for tuned version when I get a cam... Someday )
-power wedge (8-14 HP for $90.... Why not? )

So hopefully I can feel the difference. I hate doing work and not being able to tell anything changed lol.

Your butt dyno should feel the difference. With exhaust and Vararam, mine did and I added almost 40 hp. I bought a strong MAF also. Went from 366 to 404 hp. Probably the biggest increase was from ditching the stock cats for high flows.

Hey camarokid! Do you go to AU for flight management?? I noticed your flying references and whatnot and also see you have auburn as one of your locations. I'm a senior in high school and looking a few schools for aviation. I am currently getting ready for my private pilot check ride

Alright, well it literally took 12 hours to upload this video to youtube. I have no idea why it took so long even though I did upload it in HD. It's the first video I've shot of me flying solo. I just stuck my iphone between the dash and the window when I was on downwind and hit record, so nothing too fancy.

In the video I'm doing a power off 180. Meaning, once I get abeam my touchdown point, power goes to idle and I don't touch it until after I land. (except for the one allowed "engine clear" on base so the motor doesn't die from being flooded) I was practicing for flying team so you can see in the video the "lines" that make up our box... I land about 100 foot past the main line which is in front of the car you will see there...so about 100 foot after I land the last line will be there and in competition if you land outside the "box" you get 400 penalty points.

Oh, and it was very windy yesterday...winds above 16 kts.

Very cool, JT!

I met some of your members at the last camaro fest. My husband and I was wondering when would you be leaving out of the Atlanta area headed to the fest this year. We are plaining to leave out about 2:00 a.m. Thursday morning.

We haven't made plans yet, but we headed up on Wednesday last year. That worked out well, so I imagine that most of us will head out again on Wednesday.

We left as a group at 7:00 AM up around acworth on Wednesday morning. After a couple hour long+ stops we made it to indy around 3:30/4:00 pm. I feel confident that plan will stay roughly the same for this year!

Hmm not sure why! It'll be better viewed on a larger screen anyways.

It was very windy. There was some wind shear too.

Someday hopefully I can take a lot of you for a ride!
