As far as thinking of yourself as a critic; that’s a joke. Lets see what it really means to be a critic.....
The word critic comes from the Greek κριτικός (kritikós), "able to discern"[1], which in turn derives from the word κριτής (krités), meaning a person who offers reasoned judgment or analysis, value judgment, interpretation, or observation[2]. The term can be used to describe an adherent of a position disagreeing with or opposing the object of criticism. With this being said I don’t think you fit this category, I almost made a horible mistake because of your "critic" judgment on GTM.

^^ could you guys take that out of this thread.
Great job Sam, the S/C battle seems to be going well. Btw if you want to talk about battle how about the fact that Stage 1 S/C Z's are producing as much power and tq as Stage 1 TT's for a fraction of the cost. Can't wait till Tony at F.I. matches these up with LTH's and his catback I'm thinking 500whp and once that happens my $ is going on the table.

As far as the long tube headers goes there are going to be a ton of guys with these monsters that are planing to go SC. At some point I think it would be wise to source a tune for this type of application. I still think we will see power gains with the LTH.

Besides F.I.'s LTH's have been shown to create more TQ than stock. Look up scavenging just a quick site I found Autolounge.net | Tech | Exhaust It really depends on how the headers are tuned. You have to remember that an engine is simply an air compressor, the more air you can feed it and get out of it the more power it will make.

So did anyone else notice the last hard pull in the video where he went WOT hard core then shifted first to third.
I was like damn, second gear getting him to 80 mph lol... took me a minute to realize he skipped 2nd.

Sam, I was wondering if you can clarify something:
I noticed in your original post you posted dyno graphs for 8 psi with a stock exhaust. You just recently posted dyno graphs showing the results for a 4mm smaller pulley and a new CBE. However, it still shows 8 psi on the graph. Is there a typo somewhere?
