    147@rears is fantastic, keeping in mind that no cat is illegal.

    Have a look at the AFR's on the dyno map and see if it needs a tune or not, that should tell you.

    Check out "his ride" it`s a V8 so must be a BT1 or something.
    When I saw executive I thought ecotec not 5000.

    looking at the AFR's on the map id say dont worry about a tune as it wont pick up too much, for a bolt on engine you dont want much more than a approx13.5:1 ratio, most of yours are around that. For a $700 dyno tune they might lean it out and pick up a few kw's, but not many. If you are going to tune it wait till you have done some modding to the insides.

    The series 1 memcal will be fine, and considering its modified id say its got a tune of some saught

    what? Execs did come with the 5lt option. Just because its an 8 doesnt mean its a cop car.

    ah fair enough, its probably that it shows up as a -bt1 on the vehicle id. Plus the dash will be different, and a few other bits a pieces
