they figured out how to cam away EGR on this gen also. 

If it's a static cam, that's got to be bad for it in tuned form in my mind. Unless they did away with the need for it entirely on the tuning side

Tony, Matt, Myself, and Another FLX guy went to Pines today to rip around.

Buggy rips hard, no issues still. trans seems to not care on near vertical climbs.  The deeper gear of the 4l60e and way better shift points along with the 5.38s make this thing feel like twice the power to the ground as the other car.  is pretty silly with your foot down.


Fixed the case leak last night, two pin holes in the PTO cover rotted out- swapped with an SM465 PTO cover i had laying in the shop.
