Nah. Everyone has their own style. At Carlisle we had everything from stock, to May03's ridiculous sound system, to my TB.

Your TB is far from stock anyways.
True true, mine defiantly looks more unique than his :raspberry: j/k Brandon, love ya whore :biggrin:

Your TB is one of the cleanest looking ones I've seen though bud :biggrin: the chrome SS wheels and Summit white do well for you :thumbsup:

I'm looking forward to seeing how fast yours is, mine would probably be eating your TB's dust :frown: :rotfl:

I do what I can. Wash it weekly, keeo it clean, spray the salt off once a week if temps are high enough and keep up with regular maintenance.

I say between the tune and other add ons, I should be over 300. Need a dyno to confirm, but my ass dyno agrees with that statement :yes:
sounds about right since im estimating im prob around 296ish with the exhaust mods since that typically adds around 5-10 hp depending what was done.

For some reason I feel my TB is really lacking power :frown:

You have a tune? That's what you really need. Huge difference.

No tune yet bud. My TB really takes off quick once it's past 3300RPM. I'm always afraid to gun it from a stop or real slow speed, afraid of something breaking somehow, idk.

I noticed with a tune and torque management at 10%, it really comes alive around 2k rpm. Plus increasing the rev limiter and firmer shifts help.

Tunes run $159. You catch them during a sale, it typically runs $139 which is what I got mine for.

Remove speed limiter, increase rev limiter, shift firmness level 2, do you tow (no, then they will remove 90% torque management), idle rpm is tuners choice.

Most other questions will be left "stock" unless you have changed components. The order sheet will ask about exhaust and intake. Kelly at PCMofNC told me that the exhaust does not affect the tune.

They will also want to know tire and wheel size, how many feet above sea level you are. Cant remember the rest.

Not sure what I want my Idle RPM's at yet, but more than what it usually sits at around 629-635

600-630 is ok. Mine will jump in between when watching the torque app.
I'm glad I installed my Tach gauge a while back, it's easy to spot when the TB is acting strangely

You can change idle rpm to whatever you want, but on the order sheet it is auto filled with "tuners choice". I figured they knew the I6 better than I did, so I left it.
