I got my new suspension put in and got to test it at the track. Even dumping the clutch at 5k I didn't wheel hop. I wanted to lower the car, but I couln't get in and out of my driveway with a normal setup so I called up AirRide. Video 1 Video 2

Something is wrong with my car. When I take it out to the top of say first gear, slam it into second it loses power; then it gets up and goes again. The feeling is like when you let out on the clutch at too slow of a speed, it jerks for a sec then goes hard again. Its like the engine hiccups...

So, For some reason my boost is going to 0 into 3rd gear. Also losing fuel pressure. Took me from 11.8 to 13.54@113. Not worried about it. Its getting fixed as soon as we can figure out what its doing. So here is a vid, won't be up for long though. Video

I went to the track friday night and was a little disappointed with my times. I only ran a 12.8@114 with 515hp :mj: . Something felt weird all the way down the track, it was like driving on ice. When I got home we watched the video, you can see and hear the rear tires spinning all the way down...

Right Click save as. BTW its 50 mb

Have any of you guys with higher HP, or maybe not, hit the rev limiter before your tach hit high RPMs? Here is what happened to me. I was rolling in first gear at only about 10 mph. I punched it and accelerated* like a bat outa hell. Very(very) soon it felt like I hit the rev limiter but the...

I was at the track last week and forgot I had this video. These guys were making fun of a Honda Del slo. Thought some of you might get a kick. Video Right-Click here and save link Sorry if it takes a little bit to download big file and sorta slow web site.

Got the whipple on and dyno'd on a mustang dyno. This dyno gave me about 345 hp with the eaton and a 2.93 with a max boost of 12.8x psi. That came out to about 431 hp on the dynojet at Xtreme. With the whipple on and a max of 12.7psi I ran 439 HP on the mustang dyno. Pretty good I think...

So I was hoping to have some updates on my blower swap today, tomorrow for sure. But after pulling off the eaton look what I found. On former pulls I was having heat from the rear cylinders, and it looks like the ports were blocking my fuel injectors. Any of you guys with blower swaps notice...

Well, It does flow more air so... Wait for the pics to load:

Where can I get a pulley color anodized? Where can I get something color anodized? I have a new ummm, "blower pulley" that is black and want to get it anodized to match my billet flow idlers. Anybody know of a place? Thanks, and I will be posting some form of picture soon ;-)

OK, So, at the track tonight, first time running mod'd and with good tires. I didn't do so well. Ran a 12.88@112mph, I did better than that when I was stock! I was hoping for 11's on the bottle(if I could have got the dumb thing opened) I got a vid and my slip here attached so you guys gotta...

They got here today. Hopefully they will have some tire on them and have some more pics for you guys tomorrow.

I have my transmission out and the shop has tried to get the cooling mod in there, but we have a problem. We can't get the thing in. The EGR (I think) is in the way to the point that the hoses would pinch. Anybody have any ideas? The directions say to bend the tube, but there is still to much...
