If your car is bone stock, you aren't going to break it. The Rev Limiter will kick in first. Just make sure it's a reputable guy, and he knows what he's doing. When I did mine I was very happy to have him tell me the car did not need any tuning. They are well tuned at the factory...

I wasn't really looking to tune it, just wanted to bench mark my starting point.

silver, once you get a best track ET, you can use that to calculate your horsepower with the weight of your car.

 

well, my door tag says 3557lbs, but it is my understanding that the door tag amount is more than the car actually weighs? anyone?

 

mmm..i know that with a car with rear seats like my nonner, you subtract something like 150 per seating position...that would put you at 3200ish..i think that is about right...anyone?

 

i dont know, and i dont know how to find out. i dont know why they dont put the real weight on the door tag.

 

i think it has to do with federal restrictions...i think the tag weight is the maximum weight that the car can be, filled.

 

Take it to a weigh station and find out...they're everywhere and only cost about $8.
