I really feel the difference!!!! Especially when in the upper RPM's it pulls much harder now... Only thing is I'm still not feeling all my power because back in the summer I ran over a brick going about 60mph and it basically crushed my drivers side exhaust pipe so my baby is still not breathing fully.. OFF ROAD H PIPE next!!!! Then PI cams and 4.10's with a good Livernois tune!!!! I still can't believe each tune is $500 a pop.. jeez...

Nice addition, why is each tune $500 a shot? The first tune is expensive because you have to pay for a chip or handheld tuner but after that you own the chip/tuner and a retune will just be based on how long you are on the dyno...usually @ $100 an hour so retunes usually run like $150.

Dunno but I had read what you said on here before so when I was speaking with the manager I casually inquired about tunes seeing as how they kept trying to convince me that I needed one asap due to the new intake.. I said "so the tune is $500 right?" and he said yes.. then I said well I'm gonna hold off until I get the cams, gear and H Pipe put in and get it tuned then" and he said that was smart cuz every tune is $500... I was like wowwwwwwww... I'm actually tempted to leave work early so I can go drive my car lol... Can't wait for the cams!!!!!

Have fun with it and go somewhere else for a tune, sounds like they are trying to rip you off.

thanks fam!!!!! I think I'm gonna order the VT Stage 1 cams instead of the PI's though. The VT site said they provide a 25-30rwhp boost... They cost more but I want that power lol.... With my current setup plus the cams and H Pipe what do you estimate I'll make at the rear wheels with a good tune? I have a bad feeling that my custom interior plans are gonna get overtaken by the engine mod bug I'm catching lol..

Haven't had one done yet at all.. But I was at Livernois motorsports getting the intake work done and that's where the quote came from.. I wonder if they tune it on the dyno and that's why the price is so high? Calling them now... answer in a minute...
