I have 20 years of GM platform tuning experience, from Buick Regal (GN Ttype etc) turbo tuning and building to Corvette and F-Body (Camaro, Firebird) LT and LS platform etc etc. I was the dyno turner for Modern Musclecar (huge in the Buick world at the time) an Admin at www.turbobuick.com for years. I still Moderate at www.camaroz28.com, Ive worked at and with Livernois Motorsports for years as well, if youre familiar with their GM and Ford workings etc. I ran the mail order department at Ramchargers for years as well if you are familiar with the old Ramchargers drag race team from back in the day. Im fully capable of running a Mustang automotive dyno and ran the first one installed in a shop in the state of michigan back in the day. I am also certified by dynojet and can and have ran one for motorycles. Ive been tuning bikes for years as well, kawasaki, yamaha etc etc. (In the state of Michigan you have to be licenesed by the state to work on motorcycles etc, which i am).

And yes... a 300hp single turbo 3.0 inline 6 car will feel vastly different than a 550hp LS based motor. Great observation of the obvious.
you just made my day, thank you

To put you out of your misery (if you haven’t guessed by now) Xhp flashtool is for ZF automatic gearboxes.

I am selling this car anyways, this car with every upgrade ps2 xdi35 intercooler intake on and on... this car isn’t fast period. I swear in wot in third gear i hear elevator music in my head... this car at 500 hp sucks honestly... i am selling all my mods besides intercooler and turbo, flashing back to stock and selling to car max or just trading it in on a 2017 c7 Z06... at least that car will be worth spending money on modding it.
My original question wasnt that this xhp would change my shifting, obviously... it was about whether or not there was anything noteworthy other than turning off x drive. I was misinformed and i guess this is t the app to even turn off x drive. Mute anyway this car is disappointing if you take it past stage 2 ots. It isn’t worth a turbo upgrade... save your money!

Good to hear that you have seen the light on what a waste of time this car is and will be moving on. Good luck.

Come on man......no reason to get your ego bruised. We’re just a bunch of dudes/chicks hammering words in a specific order on a key board.

Just shut down the comments and/or thread 👍🏼 🍻

It always cracks me up when people build the n55/n54 platform and complain about the lack of big power. Its a 3.0 liter mass production engine that was designed for daily driving with some go. What did you expect? . I swear some peoples expectations for this platform are from watching a few dyno queen n54/n55/2jz youtube videos.

If doubling to power output isn't enough then better move on as you suggest. No replacement for displacement

Except there is.. imagine being stuck in the early 2000's... grow up guys!!! Turbo technology is getting stupid efficient; there is always replacement for displacement. But hey, go have fun with your boats
