The tune is all that needs to be said.Ive been boosted for over 77,000 miles one way or another and get on it hard at least a couple times a day when i drive it....but dont DD anymore but for those 70,000 miles it was a DD.

Stock block and FunctionTuned originally tuned my car but unfortunatley he is out of business.The second tune was with PFS in Frederick,MD and i picked up quite a bit of power as my original tune was ultra conservative.

Keith's car has been pretty bullet proof so far, even if Alberto says he is old and slow...

I may go up to PFS in fredneck to get mine retuned if I decide to ditch the canned tune from Sam.

I drive mine like I stole it every day. I will be looking for a motor to build up eventually. But right now I don't see any problems with the car. 6K into my FI adventure it still does not burn a drop of oil and I flog it pretty hard, Kirky likes the Redline...
