He has said multiple times that he has abandoned the turbo idea.

Man if I had the money I would, but it is a lot of work also. I'm not going to throw any figures out cause I don't know for sure. After I get it tuned I will dyno it though I promise. Possibly sooner if I get the time n money to. The nearest place to that has a dyno is like 50 miles away I think. My X pipe arrives today though ;D I don't want any guessing getting ahead of proof, I will post new 0-60 with road in frame soon though.  |

So I got it on and it sounds really awesome ;D but it's not running right for some reason?? My code is Low Reference Voltage. This car is making me an old man.
Edit: I might have fixed it. I cleaned up both passenger grounds..

New video coming!! You can see that the road is flat The other video was on a slight downgrade but I had car seats and stuff in my car. However this one is dead flat (hard to find around here, lol). I have the X Pipe installed as well ;D I will post pics of the video in edit mode, if requested, so you can see it shows 6.6 when you crop it. I pulled 80 near 10, which I think is impressive anyway, especially not being tuned; where I think I'll pick up quite a bit. My camera is too bulky to hold so I showed road then gauge. I am not sure if this exhaust set up will hold 6,900 rpms but I think it should be close. Just guessing, you all know my mods, I would like to know what you all think. Can't wait for the meet ;D I might let a few drive it. Good call on the X Pipe  It was my original plan but I feel I was misled a little  Actually I'm pretty sure he was sick of working on my car ;D and didn't want to fool with a crossover. Oh well, I applaud his job on my car and am grateful nonetheless. He did it all for material cost ;D ;D ;D |

Send off your PCM to Westers! I'm sure if you can get it tuned it'll open it up a lot. It definitely sounds good. However, maybe my time was wrong, but I got the 0-60 in the 7 second range  |

Well 0-80 tells the main story anyway It is less finicky than a 60 time. |

We need a base 0-100 video on stock Aurora (no mods at all) and I'll also post one  . Not to put anyone down at all  (I point out every one I pass); just to get a power contrast. I agree a road shot should be necessity |

It's going to be a little while before $$ for a tune is possible, but I can't stand waiting much longer.

Close. But by the time you hit eighty, the Vin 9 is at 84. No big deal of course, especially considering the performance over stock 4.0's. Not bad.

Here I put in a stock video of my Aurora, 0-80, with mildly wet roads.
Almost identical 0-80 times. You are mildly faster.
These are from my stop watch time:
So. 300HP Vin 9 definitely faster than stock. 0-80 in 10.2
4.0 with Vin-9 cam, slightly faster than stock. 0-80 in 10.6
4.0 with nothing, just as fast as stock. 0-80 in 11.5

Is this the downhill video or the flat one? With the road to the left and the hills around you it makes it look you are going on a slight downhill. I tried to make a couple 0-80 videos yesterday, both turned out kinda crappy, between me trying to get the rpms up in a hurry and the sun being so bright, I can't get enough of a visual for a proper time. |

The end of the road actually goes uphill.
Edit: That's why I use my phone, lol. It is a little challenging.

New Video 0-90 was gonna go to 100 but ran out of road. I wish I had the money to get it tuned so badly.  I'm hopeful that it will happen before next year, money is tight right now. |
