In all seriousness, if they are keeping his car an extra week to do a magazine article and have asked him not to post results on the internet, then at a MINIMUM he should be getting free labor for all the installation along with parts at cost rather than retail.

Can we request the info under the Freedom of information act?

I'm actually not going to buy one of their magazines because of this.

However, i will still hop on an bitc* every few days just to show that i haven't forgot you are sitting on details we all want to know. And i will go on record saying the results better be worth the wait! my Q4 build may be here before we find out these results...

You set the expectations VERY high and then didn't deliver. What else do you expect? You would have been better off not saying a word until you could post the results. We are all anxiously awaiting your results.

I have a feeling that the gains will be super inflated after the very conservative stock dyno numbers. It will be interesting when others start to dyno there stock boss to compare numbers.

It's like dating the head cheerleader and finding out she's saving herself for marriage!

Screw that! Maybe when I was in HS I'd take a tease, but I'm too old for this ****, put out or get out!

For anyone that is interested (and this is a serious post, lol) We have a customer car tomorrow that we will be doing a Boss intake/Steeda CAI/ Kooks long tube setup. The car already has a Steeda cold air/tune, so there wont be a stock baseline, but I could post those results probably by Friday for those who might want to see it on a separate post.

In the digital age, it seems like waiting for print media is lame. Such lag time between the project and making potential customers and sales...

Will you be tuning a Boss 302 in the near future? I'll be interested to see other shops results with the Boss motor and preferably modifying the TracKey tune with an off-road x.

There shouldn't be any real surprises here.

A full set of bolt-ons on a 2011 GT (CAI, tune, headers, x-pipe, catback) will net around 50-55 rwhp gain.The Boss may net a little more since it can rev higher, maybe 65-70hp.

In any case, it'll be in that range. It's not like those basic bolt-ons are going to miraculously yield 100 hp, nor are they only going to pick up 10hp. We know what a stock GT dynos, we know what a stock Boss dynos, we know what a GT dynos with those mods, it's the same basic engine design.

That's assuming they haven't monkeyed with the baseline dyno to make it look low.
