2 weeks and its Camaro season again though. It kicks off for me with going to the dealer on the 30th to put on the flash tune for the GMPP CAI, which will get installed the weekend before.

Disappointing ones from what I've heard. The change in humidity during the dyno day is enough to suggest negative gains if you baselined on a dry cold day because its small.

So less than 10 is expected. I baselined on a cooler very humid day at 392 horses, which was about 15 below what most people baselined, but I blame the humidity. So if it jumps to 415 I cant say it was only the intake.

But that's fine to me. I just wanted the engine bay to be prettier and I heard that it makes it sound better too. The small gain is a bonus.

I'm not that extreme. No heat but a little bit of extra clothes.

Bah it seems like we are having another winter here. It's 45.

xc_SS/RS · 03-14-2018, 03:17 PM

i just keep looking at the weather and for a while it was saying this week we would get into the 50's during the day, and above freezing at night.

the reality is freezing at night and barely out of the 30's during the day lol so close to spring!

HartfordRacingCaptain · 03-14-2018, 03:49 PM

Even when its above freezing I'll have to wait until its above 40 all day.

Eh we'll be a couple days off eachother. Its snowing again rn..

And I tried giving the tiniest bit of gas leaving a parking lot in November when it was hovering around 40. Not even trying to do anything other than normal driving, and I went sideways. So I'm not trying to mess around.
