Took my car to James Short at ShorTuning about 3 weeks ago. My car ran great for what it seemed to be but James was able to squeak out even more power out of an already tuned car. My mods are Hooker SC Longtubes, Custom 2.5 Y-pipe to 2.75 single to Flok tec muffler, Electric 3.5inch cutout, K&N Intake, Comp 1.6 rockers, LT4 Hot Cam, 3.73 gears, KY clutch dual fritcion clutch. When we first put the car on the rollers the car put down 269whp and 270tq. Which on his dyno dynamics dyno is a pretty stout number. Its notorious for reading extreme low numbers as he doesn't inflate anything. With this tune the car went 2.14 60ft 12.98@109.7mph. As you can see by the MPH the car was getting down pretty decent already. After about 7 hours.... yes I said 7 hours..... and 17 full dyno pulls and several partial throttle pulls the car put down 291whp and 300tq. Amazing gains from a car that was already tuned by some other shop. Went to the track last weekend and ran the car again. 2.14 60ft, 12.68@114MPH. Picked up 4 mph with just a tune. Cant beat that at all and his attention to detail and just getting the car perfect was amazing. Ive drove stock cars that drive worse than mine now. There might be a few ponies left in it but I was at the limit of injector. He doesn't really do LT1s anymore which is the sad thing. Hes all LSx stuff and currently holds the record for tuning the worlds fastest 6 speed C6 z06. I know him and we're friends. ((edited)) lol Ill post a graph and a few dyno pulls. Didnt get the 291 run on camera but got a 286 one. The in car video was so I could see what my tach read at rev limit 6400rpm.
