Switched to AMSOIL 5w-30 + AMSOIL Oil filter, car drives sooooo much smoother now.

Cobb AP + P&L DP should be here this week hopefully.
Then Baseline and Stage 1 dyno from Ptuning.
Then trying to finish nabbing these :


Has anyone else mounted their AP inside the 08 yet?

I just mounted my AP in my DGM yesterday. Man I love it, and now I don't need a boost gauge!

Can you post up the results of these pulls. Just curious about the results. And how many miles do you have on the car so far?

Yes, that was one of my intentions actually. I haven't seen too many private posts about stock vs stage 1, only from tuner shops..So I think it'll be good, esp on a lower reading dyno.
I have approx 500 miles now. Did the oil change at 350miles after semi hard break in routine.
