    Ray, what list are you looking at? The one in this sub forum shows 13.4 as the fastest bone stock GT (no CAI or tune). It hasn't been updated since 2016, but I don't see how "bone stock" could get any faster since then unless it isn't.

    STRYKER_BLUE_09* GT 13.404 @ 104.27 1.97 Track? Stock

    I talked to my tuner (first time i've used him) and he said he put a conservative tune on my car. He also said there might be more in it, re tune is only $125 so i might go back and see what he can do.

    Don't you dare pay for a retune...

    If you've added significant parts since the tune, then i understand, but if parts are mostly the same and the tune needs further tweaking, he can keep his retune fee bs.

    Time for a new tuner. If he wants to charge you for a retune of his shit tune go somewhere else.
