I had a guy with DHP Tuning software come over and help me do my rocker/hv3/hvtb/powerlog install and then we did street-tuned my car afterwards.

That's why I'm purchasing HPTuners, I want to get my tune dialed in more for this hot weather, and I need to tune the Camaro.

Truly my turbo is probably going on the back burner. I decided I want a 2012/2013 Camaro.

My Monte might become a hopefully rebuild/turbo project in the future.

I think I'm gonna just get HPTuners and a REAL CAI for the Monte and just start saving for the Camaro for now. I don't like the 98 so much, starting to give me problems. So since that is my just in case car with the Monte going under the "knife"...

2012/2013 CAMARO!!!

Wow man.... Moving up.... If you go that road, are you still sure you want to even think about the Monte???

I have some friends fearing I'm so into the Monte, I won't get back to the Camaro (a dream I refuse to let go of). But you go into the bigger toys, like a newer, higher HP Camaro, it may reduce anything you could do to the Monte.... Just a thought.

As cool as my Monte is, my Camaro has a TON more potential with less expensive parts (as it's less of a "niche" car/drivetrain with vast drive train options). When I return to the Camaro, I'm thinking a nice 350 to replace the 305, keep it carbed and a stick shift. Nothing crazy though, just some extra power.... But we'll see.

v6 manual Camaro. I will still want to do the Monte. It will always be my baby. You don't live with a car for 12 years and throw it to the side

I just really need a new reliable car that will be under a warranty. I will do an intake on it (possibly tune it) and be done with the Camaro until I pay it off. In which case I can have that time to save up for the turbo and stuff too, and when I get a house with a garage, I can worry about taking the Monte apart correctly.
