Really? I dont want to sound pessimistic but I would have thought tuning would have produced more than 22HP. Do you know if this engine will be able to be supercharged with its compression ratio? I would like to see 450HP or 400 at the wheels without touching the motor, is that realistic?

I dont know if you actually read the post but it was 22 horsepower simply changing the PE and barely touching the spark. Also thats 22 at the WHEELS which is pretty damn good if you know what your looking at.

So then when the product was released you believe it will produce more than 22 whp? I am an enthusiast but I have never had any experience with electronically tuning the ECM on a vehicle. I dont know what PE is, but I am familiar with timing changes, and fuel ratios. My comment on the 22HP was based on watching those 2 clowns on Horsepower TV use these devices on some cars and gaining about 35HP and they use a rear wheel dyno too.

Yes, but those clowns are just that. They're trying to sell company X's product and can pump more BS into their claims than anyone. They might have used a tuner in combination with other mods which could have possibly gained 35 RWHP, or done the tune on a otherwise heavily modified vehicle.
I just looked at the pix of that setup for the LS1 on the 04 Goat, very nice. This is exactly what I want, looks so neat and clean like it was factory. I am curious how much boost you can force into an engine with a compression ratio as high as the LS2's. Those horsepower numbers are crazy on the LS1!!
I do try to stay out of the fray !! However, I must comment. The "TUNER" that "found" 22 RWHP, states that he turned off catalytic converter protection. Why do you think they call it "converter protection"?????????????????????????

They do the converter protection because of federal government regulations. The government requires them to warranty that there will be no decrease in converter function for 80,000 miles. Most guys are going to high flow cats or will just replace the stock ones when they fry. They remove converter protection knowing that if they don't there will be times the computer will basically shut the car down. Also the car manufacturers tend to err on the side of not having to replace converters ever. There is probably somewhere in the middle that would be a fair compromise.I'm sure that a tuner could set it up for you if you were concered about that.
22 rwhp from a "conservative quick tune" ?!?!?! When he's done working all the kinks out and fine tuning the program I'm sure we'll see around 28 - 30 rwhp ! Tell me where to send the check !! :cheers

I know I am a total idiot but.....How is the pully for this blower in the back of the engine? I mean, the drive PTO is on the front of this engine isnt it?
Hey guys,
I need help, I have a 67 goat, my rear coils are a little tired. I want to replace them and also raise the rear about 1” to 2”s higher. Does anyone know where I can find a pair of coils that would do that ?
Thanks, John
Hi, hoping someone can help me here, my wife bought a brand new Monaro HRT 427 back in 2008, it has only ever been serviced at the our local dealer we bought the car from, took it in for a service and two new front tires last Thursday and got a call saying the front nearside hub has stripped a...
just rebuilt my 4l60 new converter and trans cooler. Got to temp and lost 1st and 4th took it back and the battery voltage was low. Tried new + terminal and nothing. Any ideas on what could it be? Trans is coming off and getting looked at to make sure everything is good.
Can anyone tell me if the sensor I have circled in the picture is the temp sending unit for temp idiot light on a 68 GTO. The light does not come on when I turn the ignition key like the “gen” and “oil” lights do so I want to make sure it’s working. If that’s it, any advice on testing it?
