Don't you already have a trifecta tune?

The LLT will advance timing for mods and such but it won't pull timing unless it detects knock

No I don't trust any of the tunes out there.

Cool I bet it would hold up better than my case.

Ok cool, I was gonna say that if you already had the trifecta tune, to remove it before you sprayed because they increase timing with the tune

I'm with you there. I don't believe in 'sometimes' power.

Have you raced your car? The only reason I will not even consider nitrous is because I have no intent on racing my car. I like to have the power but mainly just for fun around town since I don't plan on racing.

I've raced my car. Even have a few trophies from the track. But I only go to the track maybe once or twice a year. And I don't need that kind I temptation on the street.

I think it's a nice powerboost, but it's just not for me (right now at least).

My car doesn't run either of those, I'm sure. Takes me around that long to go from 0-60.

But going in a straight line for a few seconds is about as exciting to me as NASCAR.

And I'm just saying that almost every car on the road can keep up with or beat a stock V6. Wasn't it said that like the Camry was faster or something? Yeah, not a performance vehicle when that happens.

Since drag racing is boring to you, why don't you autocross? The camaro can easily hold it's own in autocross.

That's why it's good to modify to make it faster than a Camry. I mean, it's still a camaro, if I'm not mistaken, not a family sedan. Also, it might not be fun to drive in a straight line for a few seconds, but making your car faster for those few seconds also makes it more fun to daily drive.

But it is what it is. Some like to modify to make it their own, cosmetically and/or performance. No need to undermine those that do race with the v6.
