Hey everyone, I posted the other day about the T-body. Some of you will remember. Either how, I suppose that my car has always been hard for me to get it right. One thing that has become VERY clear to me is the need to tweak things correctly. A person can add all the go-fast-goodies they want but, if it's not tweaked the right way, it'll not run any better. For the longest time the most I could get was boost at 1/8 or less into the RED. After talking to Dave at SPG-9 for more than 30 minutes and taking his advice I finally tweaked it all and the parts are really coming together. Just tonight, I went out and drove it up to 35mph in 3rd gear. Then I nailed it a really good one. The car pulled 1/3 to 1/2 into the RED. It was great to finally see this thing move. Remember, it's 75-80 degrees here during the night as well. Also earlier today I had 4 new tires installed, and I'm sure that helped somehow? The purpose of this post is to say THANK YOU to all the SAABNET users and Dave at SPG-9 for helping me enjoy this car more and more. Thanks Phil
