thats what i was wondering, if you were gonna see what difference it made open vs. closed.
im honestly gonna say 189 rwhp and 4,000,000,000 rwtq. (if you do the trans-x thing we talked about.)

Oh I know... my avatar's a little old... I switched to the 98+ front end w/ the halos... and I never even started the car with it on, but I could already tell they added about 100 hp easy... lol...
Rebuilding the engine... Building a custom front end... T-top conversion... Custom rear hatch..
Custom interior...
so after the long delay, things finally went as planned:
5 pulls and a full tune for 350, and discounted pulls for my next visit...not bad at all.
and the results:
185.86 rwhp
216.12 rwtq :rock:
i was expecting a few extra ponies on the hp end of the deal, but i kept getting a slight engine knock at the peak, so 186 ain't bad at all...and the torque i was very pleased with. but the thing that blew everyone's mind is i actually gained 1hp/1tq by CLOSING my cutout----go figure---i'll still ride with it open partway though lol.
props to Disruptore4 and his friend for coming out to the shop and meeting up, he got to watch the baseline tune/pull @ 181hp/212 before we fine tweaked everything. I'll post vids after i get settled in tonight.

im just curious as to what the rates are by you. because by me im looking at about 160 pr/hr plus 50.00 per credit for hp tuners. just want to see if theirs any difference. because to me it all depends on ho long im sitting there.
i'm not sure how much he actually rated my pulls bc he gave me a discount, so i paid only 80-85 for all 5 pulls and the rest of the balance was the tuning.
ok... well i was just curious because theirs only two shops by me one that charges a flat rate of 750 for the camaro v6 ...which im assuming im pretty much paying for hptuners. and the other guy as i said above. im only looking into the future though so its no big. thanks though.
i was guessing that you would have less tq and more hp with the open cut out.
not bad tho!
