Dyno run
Finally got to put the RS on the dyno to see what kind of power I am putting down. Ended up with 202 HP and ~250 lb/ft.
I am very satisfied with this, as these motors have 200HP and 235lb/ft from the factory AT THE CRANK. So with these numbers, accounting for drivetrain loss, I have about 230HP at the crank and 275lb/ft!

Got tune from PCMforless
My custom tune arrived yesterday and I put it in today. I feel a bit more power, and the shifts have been firmed up. Plus they removed the EGR and after-cat O2 sensor, so no more SES light.

It's finally done!
After having it sit it my backyard for almost a year I finally got around to installing the Z28 rear end. Took about 6 hours without knowing how to go about doing it.
I feel the extra acceleration thanks to the higher gears, and the LSD helps with the traction a lot.
Just ordered a tune from PCMforless which will fix the speedo for the new gears and improve performance from my exhaust and intake.
I am now finished with mods for this season. Come April, once winter has passed and I have a few hundred bucks from tax returns I'll start again.

No i really dont have any parts left. I thought about the boost but then just bought the v8. In reality you will probably spend about 2k plus for your blower. In the end the six will blow to smitherines. Then you will buy the ls1 lol. Just saying i would
