And how do you like the g-force? I can't wait, the ss comes out on the 15th..

looks good, sound good...how do you like that Iron/unsprung disk :lol: I hvae the 4i which is the stage 4 pressure plate but the same disk. Its a lot of fun to get use to and it is def a anti-theft device. :wink:

Looks good man. When do you think you'll be able to run at the track for some numbers?

May 10th will probably be the first time at the track.
Not looking for anything better than a mid 12 though. Damn this altitude.

Dyno tune is April 19th.
Clutch took some getting used to for sure. Little grabby. :lol:

*whistling noise*

awsome list there. I can't wait for a time!

Bought time you broke in those NITTOs eh Luos?

Cool, I know your up there, aren't you around 4k feet? Cool for a dyno tune.

You don't say(grabby clutch) :lol: :grinyes:

Whut do u think ur best mod was for hp gains? did u notice a big difference hooking up with those nittos?

Probably the 402. :grinyes:

The Nittos are the best and the worst of the drag radials.
They last the longest, so they are the best for the high powered weekend street car. But they are the worst at the track.
And yes, they are MUCH better than the street tires for traction.


DarkblueT/A....I race at 5800 feet. Bandimere.

karll....no way. Unless you want to help pitch for the new set. :lol:

do you take cash or money order?

Either.

OK, check is in the mail. Now it's time for burnouts.

nice lookin mod list. im diggin the z06 in the background too! might be wrong but dont guys get the fast intake for nitrous? are you planning some giggle juice later down the road?

Guys get the FAST intake when they want a ton of flow.
It is really nice for nitrous as well though.

I am not a fan of nitrous, but this motor would love it.

Curtis, I am not talking to you Anymore!!!!!




:lol:

Sorry Erdal. :lol:

I wonder will you ever be like completely content with the power your car has, or will this be one of those life long journey's?

Man, you know i'd smoke you :p (NOT). Nice pics. Car looks like you baby it 24/7. I think it's gonna be one of the fastest cars on AF, if you just go to a sea level track.

Well, I think that if I do what i'm thinking of doing, i'll be getting rid of my WS6, and getting a pre modded Evo/STi.

man, why evo/sti???

what is wrong with the LS1? :O

I'm moving out of California, in the hopeful near future. This car is terrifying in the snow/rain/ice. It doesn't have traction control. Trust me, w/ 4.10's and 350whp, this car is flat out spooky in the rain, let alone the snow.

Mr lous! You have created a monster out of that ride! a 500+hp ta! w0w... the rimz must have cost you a lot. Damn that baby is got everything... from getting attention and smoking any damn car on the road. pheww:eek: Ride smooth and tak3 car3 man.

Thanks.
Wheels weren't that bad actually. Putting tires on them was almost as bad as the wheels.

Still have some minor work to do before she is completely ready for summer fun. Fuel pump, drop springs, dyno tune. All should be done by the end of this month though.

how long your car stayed at that garrage Curtis?

Which garage??
Mine? About 5-6 months total for the swap. Another month to work everything out, but it was driveable at that point.
