08 Vette needed LOCALS ONLY!!

Post by mikel »

We are ready to start tuning on the 08 Vettes.
I need some LS3 cars (I think I already have a Z06 lined up, and they are basically a carry-over from the 07 MY) in the shop for testing.
We'll provide a loaner car to anyone that may need one (let me know if you specifically do not need one).
Anyone willing to participate in the Beta test program will be compensated with a free Predator for their Corvette as soon as they are ready to go.

Auto/M6, we need both, so line em up and let me know.
We are located off Linton Blvd. east of I95.
We'd need the car for about 2 days on average, and we will provide dyno sheets once the car tool is released.

Thanks
Mike

hey Lost.. .they only need it for a couple days... so schedule yourself a Florida vacation... drop your car off for a few days, use their loaner car (I hear Johan has a nice Beemer!) to go have some fun, then pick up your car and free new predator when they're done.

I hope you get some LS3's for testing, SOON! Waiting for your programmer.

When completed, will we have the ablitiy to DISABLE TORQUE MANAGEMENT? That is very important.

Had a slight hold up in getting started.
I have a 08 Z06 and at least one A6 car lined up...should start tuning soon.

When you said TM will be reduced, under full throttle power-shifting, will TM be DISABLED? That's what I am, and others I'm sure are looking for. Right now my 08 under full throttle power-shifts will not spin the tires, but if I let off the throttle slightly, they WILL spin. Telling me that TM is on and working. :(

Well, in the past there has never been any TM in the M6 tunes...if that has changed in the 08s than we will decide from street and dyno testing how it needs to be set for optimal performance vs. longevity.
