it depends, i have some good buddies that come and spend countless hours doing work on our shop cars (evo, 04 cobra, 89 autox crx) so it really depends, im sure we could figure something out...usually takes about 6-7 hours from start to finish...

Did you have a spare trans for when you did your swap? I was thinking of just rebuilding the trans myself but that would mean that the car would be stuck on the lift for a few days.
I can do without the car for a few days but obviously it can't stay on your lift during that time.

ya but when that car that trap in 119-120 and let you go first and play catch up its hard to say what you really will trap then.

your driving is spot on. Your car is very fast. I would love to run at a fast track. I went friday to palmdale here in so cal 2700, no track prep, and wind is always in your face. I felt 12.13 and 12.17 were good for my car.

Then do a real race, and don't let me go first.

Also corn traps 118 I believe, and I was right with him.

thats good weight... what did yo do to get the car that light?,,, my car weight in at 3350 lbs with me in it (my weight 185) and its a RS... plus what psi are you running it on? you said 21 to 22.. i dont know how you can trap that with that PSI ... seems way too low to make your car run 116 mph... are you sure your running 21 to 22 psi? cuz lots of people ran there cars with much higher psi and did not trap that much, plus really good tunes.... so i dont know how your running 116 mph with only 21 to 22 psi, just does not sound right... and on top of that its pump gas... i dont think the FMIC would give you that much more power but you never know... good run!! but still

21-22 psi is all I run. No doubt about it. And it was straight pump.

There is not much outta the car. Still full interior aside from back seats.

Car is 3240 stock so 3100 is not bad I guess.
