My EGT's are UNKNOWN. My current probe is DEFECTIVE. I should have a new one in on Monday, Tuesday at latest. It reads fine to 700 degrees, then it just stops climbing. Right after that vid I had the muffler removed, but didn't like how it sounds. It's too... high pitched for my tastes. I'm probably going to put in a 24" magnaflow or something to deepen it up. It sounds good on the highway and incab it sounds great, but with the windows down it sounds horrible when it bounces off buildings and other cars.
The camera man was no other than Merrick Cummings.

It does donuts VERY well. It really wanted to slide hard to the right for some reason, and took a good bit of countersteer to keep it going straight.

I tried, but the engine is torque managed, at least on the 2005's. I was showing Merrick, and he said I should be launching 10x harder, and the ecu is doing some funny stuff. You can definetly feel what he's talking about, you brake torque it in 4hi, get the boost up to 20-21psi, and let off the brake, it kinda "uhhhs" then takes off hard after 5-10ft. I asked bullydog if they could remove this for me, and they currently they were unable too.
