If anybody has one on the 550 please let me know if it's legit. I'm going to find out how much to dyno my car and if it's cheap enough I might buy the race chip and get my car dynoed. If it's BS I will send it back at their 20% restocking fee and eat the dyno cost. This won't happen any time soon as I'm still waiting for a real tune for the stock ecu.

Here's another pic.
Lmk if you need info on the RaceChip, I have been selling a good amount of their products.
You won't be dissapointed.

Yes I need info on the ultimate race chip, have you sold any to 550 owners and can they chime in on if they make the power claimed by race chip. In the f body world 95hp and 80ftlbs would cost 2-3k so I'm a little skepticle of them. But if you can get me some info or contact an owner to say what's up that would be great.

Yes, I have sold a few to 550/650/750 and X5/X6 5.0i.
Unfortunately I don't keep record which forum member since they don't usually tell me what is their username.
But, I am going to test it with my 650GC next week. Not sure if that would be biased review though.

That sound awesome, can you do a thread and post your results? Are you going to get your car dynoed? If you showed a nice gain similar to what race chip says I'm sure you will have people lining up to buy one including me.

Do the rears clear the fenders when you compress the suspension?

Thanks, the 305's bearly touch the top inside lip of the wheel well. I plane on having 5 millimeters machined off the rotor hat and 4 millimeters machined off the wheel hub to give me 9 millimeters more clearance, I'm pretty sure they will clear after that. Right now I currently have 295's on it, but my goal is to make the 305's fit.

I see you have 20x11's on your sweet ride, what is your rear offset and do you have any issues with yours?

Awesome shot! If they had a double slat with carbon fiber he'll yeah!...but they don't did u order those from RW as well and can't tell from the pix but r they 1×1 or 2×2 weave?

Just some suggestions if u plan on doing more I would opt to have the roof vinyled gloss or matte black. Carbon fiber front lip to match all your other carbon fiber components and finish it off with some carbon fiber mirror caps and 3D roof spoiler!
