they couldnt lean her out when they finally did they used a tune from a different Camaro and never accounted for a different vin so my car locked its computer as if it was being stolen, whole experience was a total mess from the get go terrible communication lack of knowledge about the car as well. Do you think a phone call a day when your dropping 1000s is too much to ask ? Its all good I wish them well but ill never be back there again NEVER ! I dont want to mention their name here in forums because im not out to destroy anyone just venting. Plus the car didnt put down the number it was supposed to so now shes heading to Enzo racing as reccomended by Alex and some good buddys of mine as well. Im going to get her now and its kind of cold out P zeros dont like the cold so it should be a fun ride home. Learned alot of important lessons from this. Research the shop to the point of overkill never never never pay in full if they demand that walk away. I trusted the people who sent me there and had faith in humanity that there are still stand up guys out there, oh well

the car put down 480 rear wheel horsepower and 490 ft lbs tq, it will be fast and blast to drive but I paid for what was advertised im not too happy with the companys claims although it could be the tuners so it will get a look over and full dyno tune then off to ARH for a body brace and new mufflers

Its unfortunate some people can be so cavalier w/others money and belongings. How was the physical install though muck? I've seen some hacked jobs from shops when they install certain setups? Hope it works out...

It most likely will make more HP just need to get a good tuner, most shops that are not real good or just dont want to risk blowing up a motor will run it very rich with a lot of timing pulled out.

went through the same sh!t with my GTA.. still close with one of the guyswho did the work and he tries to help every chance he gets but hes only one guy and has a full time demanding job, my car hasent ran right since i took the old motor out. needless to say thats why i hate it and want to get rid of it, but i know im not gunna get what i put into it. so i guess im stuck with it.. its been well over a yr now since the swap
havent had any time at all to even play with it, Al has tried helping me but ive been way to busy.

good luck with yours hope it works out soon.

It's obvious when you're putting add-ons to a computerized car you'd better know everything about the computer and what it controls and how to defeat and alter existing parameters! Duh! That shop really strung you along, Mike. They were using your car as a test bed....sort of learn-as-you-go on someone else's dime! They probably know turbos and installing and even tuning them....just not on 5th gens! They do now!
