I'm new to the G8 world but not to this engine platform as this is my third LSX vehicle. I just had my car tuned at Pat G's place in Victoria with the mods in my sig. The numbers are alittle lower than expected but better than average from what Pat said. It is a Mustang dyno after all and not a dyno jet. The track opens back up on the 28th and hope to get a few good runs in.
The car runs great, better than what the dyno suggests honestly. I realize this is just a bolt on car, but I can't say enough good things about Pat! He's one of the best tuners in the country. He'll spend as much time as you need to get all the part throttle, trans tuning, etc done. That's what separates the good tuners from the great ones. The last tuner I used in KY is the same way, attention to detail after the WOT runs.
I did get a decent 50-105 run with an M6 GXP with the same mods as me except with a stock intake and a Pat G AutoCal email tune. It was dead even, although he was starting to build alittle momentum at the end, probably enough to pull 1-2 cars by ~130 from not having to shift. I'm happy how mine runs!
Not sure how far I'll go with this car as it's my daily driver. The DOD lifters will probably end up making that decision for me....

Are you on 93 octane? We seem to have almost the same mods... I'm a bit curious to know what your avg mpg is since you say it's your daily and so is mine.
