Mention your name here and maybe I can shed some light into what actually happened. The camaro in question sounds like the one that was brought to our shop with a blown power steering cooler that was swelling all the hoses. I'll have a talk with him soon and ask him who your are.

+1 for Garage 5.

Wayne has done quite a few tunes for both my old EL, and my old Turbo Teg. Both were with Hondata, but I'm sure he's done tunes with Crome before.

Concidering Honda's are their bread and butter, they would be my starting point. Though I've heard plenty of great things about Evolution, RG, and the Speed Syndicate.

I believe they are currently planning a private track day for customers but thereafter will be looking to do the annual DD. there are two 1000+whp supras that need to finish first - one single turbo the other twin. The single will be the one to watch. Sean told me it made 1100 whp on their mustang (the heart breaker) and still had more to go. That car is supposed to make even more this year.

Was that the white one I saw parked at the side of the shop when I was there like a month ago?

RG announced their first DD of the year this afternoon, in case anyone missed it.

Yes but there are two white ones. One has a real 3000gt widebody kit with no engine in it (that's the single turbo one that will make 1100+whp) and then there's the other white one which has a replica redox kit with a roof vent which directs airflow to the wing....that's the twin turbo which previously made 800whp and is aiming for 1000 now. Both cars are insane.

Yeah this was the one I was looking at when I was in their shop. Man was it ever clean, except for that flat rear tire lol.

Oldish pic. I was told the design concept is to direct flow to the wing, but I can't say whether it actual does what it's supposed to.

Sorry, but no. It's not doing anything except giving the wing more turbulent air. Need vortex generations such as what the evo's have. Or just put the wing up higher.

Heard it happened just an hour after it was finally on the road. Not by the owner though...a friend of his.
