What do you guys think of the 550 versus the 535. It would be a pretty close race right?

If you do the tune for your car, you'll blow away a 550. How long have we been telling you to do this? LOL!

Yeah, I'm always cautious around 335 and 535 cause you never know if it's modded. But there's still something about the sound of a V8 that gets me going. Especially with my RPI exhaust

In another forum there's a guy that has a JB3 in his 535 and says that it's faster than a stock 550.

Not sure about the turbo tunes, but I've heard about the JB3. Which there was something like that for the V8s.
