  2. Take the free one, and with the leftover cash buy the other one.
  3. Could be, but I don't see how you would go 90 on that road if something wasn't going on. BTW I got another tune done, added a fair bit of low end responsiveness. I'm currently researching Torque Management, and I hope to have another one ready by the end of the week. I'm pretty happy with my progress so far. By the middle of next week I should have a new 0-60 up.
  4. Hung with = front bumpers lined up the whole way. No insult taken, I'm truly baffled. 0-40, was just firm acceleration, each one trying to go faster than the other with out just all out racing, after 40 we both laid into it. I went WOT around 50 and pulled slightly ahead, then he sped up and we stayed neck and neck with his front bumper at my drivers door. After 85 I taped my brakes and he probably kept going until about 90 when he realized I had let off. My car was louder than his, with just the minor intake mods, so yeah he was probably just a v6 with some badges. He looked stock. Looking at Wiki, it looks like they used the 350 LT1 in the z28 at the start of the generation. Its only rated for 275 at the crank, I wonder what it is at the wheels.... Oh I still can't take it.
  5. So anyone want to explain how I just hung with a 4th gen Z28 Camaro from 0-85, before I let off?
  6. Well Ghost third tune is ready, it more advanced than the first one, but less aggressive than the second. The second is the one that didn't work. Right now I'm only do torque management, and limiter related tuning. Timing and AFR tuning will happen later. Really I'm just hoping to get one done per day for now. If I can keep this pace she'll be running great for the Ohio meet. Be patient (This is the first car I've ever tuned, also my DD) and I may get it over to the dyno for some fun.
  7. Same thing happened to me earlier, except i was doing about 75, so I put the pedal down and passed them. It was funny seeing their 4 banger crossover trying to catch up to me. At the time I was still running my custom tune with reduced torque management. Fun times.
  8. Supported list. http://www.hptuners.com/products/vcmsuite_vehicles.php I'm going to guess no on custom code. Are you talking about modifying the BCM to change change this in the displays? If so then not that I know of. As far as actually programing the computer with it, its like modifying and excel document, but with a couple of hundred tables, and various options.
  9. Am I allowed to nominate that cake again? Just because I'd really like to see it win. '86_TransAM 1991 Firebird cake Thread; http://foreverpontiac.com/index.php?showtopic=2522 Sorry I don't have a photo.
  10. Its time for another meet. Details below, Place: St. Mary's Lake, Lima, OH Date: Saturday, September 10th, 2011 Time: ??? Hop on over and add your name to the list, or put it here and I'll try and add it. http://www.g6performance.com/forum/showthr...ll=1#post481894
  11. Blood, nothing, you can sometimes get free sports tickets for donating though. Plasma, $20 -$50 depending on need, and location. From what I understand though Plasma is hard on your body. IIRC the highest I've ever heard of was $100, and that was some years ago, after a large disaster. Don't ask me the difference between the two.
  12. So today I flashed my new tune, installed a larger TB, and installed a new intake pipe. Then the car wouldn't run, so I undid it all, and she's back to how she sat 3 days ago. Good news? Yes, I think I just jacked up the tune, and there's only two settings I need to confirm. Bad news? Back to work tomorrow, so new parts won't be installed for another week.
  13. My first one, and I've already screwed up. Turns out I missed one of the RPM limiting functions, since the car has 3 methods of this. . Live and learn though. I'm currently tweaking more Torque management settings. Honestly there is some estimation involved with all this.
  14. Well, I have the 1st "tune" ready to upload to the G6. This is really just a new speed limiter, new rev limiter, and some minor mods to the torque management. It only took me an hour to get that set. I've also added some new parameters for data logging.
  15. HPT has a massive forum. They have made a lot of general how to's. The big this is they won't do specifics for liability reasons. However there are a few basic guides you can follow. CSS also has some helpful info, along with the eco forum.
  16. . I'll tell you. First is limiter, torque management, injector stuff, and airflow stuff. Basically higher top speeds, ability to do a real burn out, not maxing my injectors, and larger TB stuff. Next comes the real tuning stuff. This is where AFR is set, along with spark advance. The car will also be tuned for primarily 93 octane, while a low octane table will be set to allow 87 to be burned when desired. PS, you're not the only joker.
  17. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you about your age. What did you men by your question then? You asked what all can it do.
  18. Bill is amazing! We've been working on this for a little bit and discovered stuff. There was a read error. We have a work around and I'm up and running. Just a note, this shouldn't be an issue for any other G6s.
  19. Its going to be a hell of a lot harder than just ordering a tune, or paying someone. But I kind of like a challenge. I have the top of the line setup, so $650. Right now there is a VCM read issue related to my TCM. I may not have a goo authorization code for access. I've been in communication with their support department, and so far they've upgraded me to a Beta platform, and we're working it out. I just did an infolog and took some screen shots for them. Hopefully I'll be up and running in the next few days.
  20. HPTuners? Everything. Full tuning, datalogging, TCM and ECM editing, the list goes on forever. Hell, I've had it for a day, and I'm still just trying to get it set up correctly.
  21. You know it. Still working on it.
  22. Ok, here is a photo from the first log with my surprise. Anyone know what I bought? I'm still setting this thing up, and trying to get the interface working.
  23. I'm sort of lucky here. One thing me and my father have is mutual respect for other's property. He asks to borrow my car, that he payed for, puts gas in it, and washes it every time (if it needs, or could use it). On the flip side, I take care of his tools. Hell I've broken a few of them. I just recently sawed through the cable of his circular saw. Every time I do though I own up, and damn its cost me some cash.
