Progress Thread Tanner's "there's Probably A Name For This Illness" Builds Thread

Something about this pic.... Just screams @tannerc91gt

lol

It's sad the amount of people that fall for it as well. There's an orange c6z with a 5.0 cover that made people furious. Most called it photoshopped, the rest called it ruined. Literally just laying on the intake lol


I put new center caps on my car...that's as exciting as things have been. I've figured out that I'm unhappy unless I've got a goal that I'm actively trying to reach. It's an expensive character flaw lol

That guy is on local boards here. He has a tragic story that he is turning into something awesome. I don't think he'll mind me sharing this.

That car was already built before he turned into Tanner lol

I've talked to him on Facebook a few times as well. Real nice guy

12 days until Dyno time lol

New intake should be here in a couple days.
Can't seem to leave stuff alone, go figure

These things are friggin sweet. I know they've been out for 10 years but they're new to me

You skipped a step. Dyno results?

 

[tannerc91gt]

Drove the car 3 hours to the tuner on an 85 degree day and right onto the rollers, tried to give it a few breaks throughout the day though (tuned for 4-5 hours). Seemed to do alright.
Here's the graph.
Numbers might look funny but It's a Dyno Dynamics and reads incredibly low. Tuner said a DynoJet would be about 12% higher or around 470whp. I still feel that's low comparing it to similar combos. Meh

What I unfortunately don't have is the sheet with the first pull and final results. It was already on his mail tune and he didn't expect to gain much. Surprisingly it picked up power at every RPM.
I'll have to get in on a dyno day for a glory sheet but the drivability and responsiveness is outstanding for a big cam car. 14mpg on the way down and 27 on the way back to boot.

Little 4.8 out of a 05 tahoe. Low miles. Gears are turning on which car to put it in.
