I don't believe there was any tuning done at the time of the header installation...unless they did it w/o me knowing, but I doubt it.

The tuning @ SLP was a little tuning with the air/fuel to improve the hp/torque outputs. SLP offers packages where they will offer different levels of tuning as part of the dyno pulls.

I wanted to get SLP to tune my car when they dyno'ed the car but it would have been like $700 bucks and Brian Reese told me that with the tuning he could only guarantee me another 10rwhp so I didnt think it was worth the money for 10hp. Although it may have saved me some aggravation with burnt up plug caps and wires, but atleast the dealer fixed them under warranty!

I agree but you should retune the car when you get mods done, you should get more than 10 hp. and dont pay 700 bucks, the going rate is more like 500 to dyno tune a f-body and mail order ecu is like 200 or 300 bucks.

Yeah I heard SLP is way high as far as the tuning pricing, I was going to try and find Cartek as well as I've heard a lot of good stories about them. Also heard Rapid Motorsports out your way was pretty good too.

sorry dt, havent been on in a bit. yeah, if you want to see the turbo kit, let me know. they are not in the car now, nor the engine. but you can see them laying quietly in a box. im playing phone tag with the distributor to see what i have to do with them, i dont know if they are cooked or not. the engine is. i might be sending them back to see if they work at all. cant test them on another car, cant sell someone dead turbo either. anyway, let me know, can meet you at my shop in bristol inbetween house hunting. i showed girlslikecars2 the other day, the look on her face was priceless.

Hey Hurricaine, whats the name of your shop in Bristol? I work over at Waste Management, I am sure we've had to pass each other on Tyburn
