Default RE: Whipple and steeda adaptive tune, anyone see this?

That thread is kinda mis-leading... They are talking about starting with a Q500 (which is a damn far cry from a stock GT), an offroad exhaust, a full road race setup suspension and race compound tires, and then they just threw this cal on top of that... but to read it in passing it sounds like GT+Whipple+cal = anything killer....

... I am still not impressed.
It's got the same engine as a GT right? Half the people on this site have an offroad exhaust. I hardly think it's an anything killer, the 1/4 mile time isn't even that great. I was just surprised it didn't blow up.

If you look at steeda's website, they say 12.2 @ over 113mph. I guess they weren't really sure. Whipple ran 11.8@ over 118 with their completely stock test car.

Exactly my point... Like I said.. still not impressed with this Adaptive crap.
