AR You are correct with Your premise. But, As I mentioned I'm far from stock and a touch better than LPE. There are just those rides that You come across once maybe twice in a life time that the engine, tranny and everything just clicks perfect. LPE would do much better with there TT but, like anyone who sells to the public even performance they are warranting their product so they attach some boat anchors to help people not break them so they do not have warranty to worry with. Plus they do not want folks to get hurt. KenP has a very nice running setup but, when He is done with His adjustments he is so going to be much happier. There are many little tricks You can perform as KenP and I are working on. Ice down the fuel line and run water/methanol inj. As I love LPE and have great respect for them in fact may be getting some special heads from them that they do not even list for sale, as a sponsor if We can work it out, if not I'll buy them as they will flow allot more air and not raise compression any. If You do allot of things write even 7000 lbs. will move and the nice thing is the whole shot. I punch it and I'm gone. Most like My cousin spin the tires accumulating plenty of smoke while I'm half way done the 1/4 before he hooks up. Do a search for KenP's track run against a Ford F-150 Lighting. Should be no way an H2 should beat that truck period. No logical way except how eveything hooks up. I tell My friends about Ken's run and they all think I'm nuts until they see it for themselves. I have it on My laptop so I can back up what i tell them about. I'm picky that way. Once everything is done and tuning is complete and heads are on I'll show more probably race it at Centerville Raceway. My tuning will be so tight that I do 100 miles of scanning and logging on the software before i edit and make changes. The tuning software will be running full time once the PC system is installed in H2 so that everytime the rig fires up the PC boots and the tuning software loads right after OS so that anytime I want to stop and load to edit i can fine tune it some more. I'll have 3 tunes saved so i can change anytime i want. Race, street perf., economy, and stock. We are also going to work very slowly on tuning for 87 octane and see what We can get to do with that even with boost. May require more cooling like engine oil cooler etc. to prevent detonation but, will be interesting to see. We are building an intake scoop to take in more fresh air and a baffle on the other side that will allow cold air to flow across and creat a vacumm effect to draw more heat out of the engine compartment. Beat heat and You win allot of the power battles.
Well as usaually I rattle to much but, thanks to all who have accepted and tolerate.
Yes I have a magical H2 that has had allot of planning and hard work put into it. It will run as good as it looks. I'll have pics and video's when all is done. It is real nice with ghost flames and completely sanded with Sikkens new clear coat, since they are My paint sponsor now, that make you look like You can put Your arm to Your elbow in paint once finished. Their clear is equal to about 5 coats of factory. Really nice product.
It is not ordinary but, has been expensive as well as fun. She has been good medicine to help me through the illness i had and became a challenge after that.

I had the choice of new toys and went H2. Hot roads not sports cars have always been My thing anyways, so i wanted something more different. People do not get out of the way of Vette's like they do H2's and My cousin who just got a new 2006 Vette without engine upgrade, after riding with Me and seeing that there is so much more to do to the H2 than the Vette wishes He had gone H2. Especailly after My highly blown H2 blew His butt of the road out on the old Scott hiway racing road from the old days. I suggested I may give Him a scare and He rolled His eyes so after We took of all He saw was My tailights and now He is really unhapppy and talking trading if I'll help Him build His H2. Of course I will, He's My favorite cousin.

Of course your cousin could be a completely inept driver. While I love my H2 there is no way to make it a straight line performance match for even my M3, forget about my Z06, LOL.
BTW, all C6's come with the 400 HP engine stock, no upgrade is needed to turn 12.5 - 12.7's 1/4's & sub 4 second 0-60's. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
