    after months of people trying I finally brought the car back to gs motor. I trust all of the guys down there with my cars life.I got a phone call yesterday from scott saying the first run wtih the tune made 473hpo and 500 tq. He said he would tweak it a bit more and see what he could get. I then faxed a waiver up saying he could dyno tune it on my nitrous!!!! I am not sure how it went or what kinda numbers the car did on the spray. I guess I will find out I am leaving SD right now to make the trip to gs then back up to northern cali. If this tune is really right on I will be bolting up my drag radials and seeing if I cant be the first srt8 in the 10s this weekend at sac.

    Jay or scott could you post the dyno sheets up from me? Thanks again GS motor sports!!!!!!

    yea I wish I knew end numbers. Even if I get what I already got I would be happy. But I hope there a little room for more. Any one want to come out to sac raceway this sat?

    Scott called me last night about your numbers. Congrats

    Your gonna beat me to the 10's. I plan on only using a 100 shot. I figure anything more will blow the DR's off. Good luck this weekend.

    John just went to a local dyno and dynoed on motor and on the spray. On motor, he hit 465rwhp/485rwtq. On the 150 shot, he hit 600rwhp/640rwtrq. Assumimg 20% driveline loss, he is making 581hp/606tq on motor and 750hp/800tq on the bottle. Not too shaby. Also, John is running stock headers and cats.

    so far his best motor time is 12.0@120mph spinning due to no track prep. There is only a few guys there, so the track is very cold and slick. The n2o will not turn on. The motor runs were all on the n2o tune that has 3 degrees of timing retarded. I should have another update soon.
