The car is on a PeteyTurbo tune now. not on a dyno though, i just sent him some logs

the shop he works at is 3 hours drive from me, i haven't fine the time to drive out there to put it on the dyno yet. the car is running great now but i'm going to make some changes soon and will need a retune.

All I got to say is DAMN! could only imagine how many hours you put in, to get it to where it is. wish I had the talent & confidence to take my car to the next level. Mad kudos to you bro. keep up the good work. Just curious, what's the weight on those buddy club's?
