haynss Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 dude you better be in at least the 13s, high low whatever, you need to get there There was a boy with his 05 GT getting tuned yesterday. He swapped his gears to a 4.10 and ran a 13.2. Yesterday he just did a CAI and tune, i think he was near 380 to the wheels. He was hoping to get to the 12s with that. Nice looking car. Dylan, i almost called you last night but didnt want your wife to get all jealous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.justin. Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Haynss: What are you going to be doing about smog check? I'd love to slap a 408 in the truck down the road, but with plans on moving back to Sac/Davis, Fresno or San Jose, but I don't know what I would do about the sniffer.

haynss Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 For your tranny work id take it to jim @ ATO. He did mine and did a good job!! Highly recommend him. As for your servos, i have my billet ones sitting in my back seat of the truck if you didnt have any yet. Jim ended up putting in the vette servos.

Although now that I think about it... How does a dyno test in CA handle the AWD? Just a test in Park at two different RPMS like they do here?

haynss Posted August 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 When my truck is on the dyno it isnt necessarily for power reasons, its for tuning sakes. To get a true read you'd have to go down south to LA (AWD dyno). I know there is a shop here in sac that does subarus and they said they could fit my truck but ill actually go there when im completly done with all my stuff. I'm pretty sure they will not be able to fit me though. I'd like to get a "real" dyno with the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, your impresses me and sounds absolutely awesome in that video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenKey Posted August 2, 2005 Report Share Posted August 2, 2005 Unfortunately, not an option... I think Arlington, VA emissions limits are about as bad as they were in Davis 2 years ago when I failed with my last truck Since when does VA require smog check. Hampton Roads only does a visual. It's different 100 miles north? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's different 100 miles north? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep. Full dyno check for 2wd cars, idle & 2500 rpm check for awd. And the allowable limits are rather extreme IMO. Thats what I get for living in a blue county near DC... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
