SCRLA great offer!!!


i just got off the phone with wes fom saturn motorsports and he has a guy in canada that do us a custome tune for our cars... he just did one for a stock saturn sky (non turbo) and he gained an exrta 19 whp and 15 ftlbs just from his tune.... this is all he does for a living sits in front of a dyno!!!!


this guy has been doing this for a long time and its the same person that tune saturnmotorsports race cars... wes told me that we can pay for one tune and then save the tune to our HP tunners and share it with the crew he dose not care, its also alot cheeper than paying for our own dyno tune at a shop with people that have not tunned our cars before... this guys works almost exclusvly on saturns and the best park about his tunes are he gained another 15% gas mileage on his tune vs the stock tune.... im all about this idea of the crew chipping in for a tune to share from this guy. the cost is around 450.00 thats all let me know SCRLA if you want in on this with me!!

ok...whats the catch...
...is this only for STOCK RL's...or would it work with staged RL's also?...$450 is CHEAP for tuning, would it be on a dyno? The guys over at whifield racing will dyno tune our cars also but have not provided a $$ based on the fact that I cannot guarantee a number of cars....

So this guy is going to tune a car from long distance without having the car in front of them, when SMS's race program is based off the 2.2? I'm not sure if you've noticed or not, but SMS offers nothing for the Ion Redline really, I don't think they own one, and most of their parts are for the 2.2's and now the Sky, since they bought a Sky.

I dunno man, that's a pretty hefty claim to make.

Sounds good DJ, but the guy from Haddad Motorsports is only $500 which is only $50 dollars more....and he uses one of our cars to dyno on his dyno...all he does is GM vehicles, so he is very knowledgable of HP TUners....also he guarantees that he will squeeze out every ounce of HP/TQ out of the car, even if it takes 2 days....$500 is his set rate...and maybe if we bring him our HP Tuners on a car that is registered to it, it may even be cheaper...the $500 is including getting credits for the car....but we have them already....

hmmm... yeah... seems better if he actually has the car... with the individual mods... smokems car has a good set of mods that most of us ether have or will have... I think a dyno tune specific to those mods would be most beneficial.

Yeah... it is more likely that most of us will be set up real close to the way he is now so it would benefit the group more for him to get a dyno tune... but if we dyno tune Mikes car it would be a break through for the whole redline community.

ok listen he has a way to tune the car by taking the reading from our tunes and how our car runs and he does alot of corvetts also i just found that out... he has a turbo kit for the vette and his tune is daily driven at 600+whp.

i just left saturn motorsports and WES said he will gaurantee hp# from the start and he will get everything out of the car he can, we can tune whatever car you guys want to do weather it be mine of weather it be rocky's he will gaurantee us numbers. he has a dyno there and WES said he dose not need the car to tune it just a list of mods and some readings that WES can pull off the car there at saturn motorsports!

saturnmotorsports has alot of things for the RL now take a loot at there website, and so far i have gotten all of my mods from him!!!! its up to the crew though
