metalsaber you have a logger? you can check your dynojet numbers via virtual dyno if so.

you should replace your white mesh with black it would look 10x better i think. is that a carbon fiber hood just painted or is that custom?

the power is nice for 93oct. the buschur shortblock and head really do work well together.

the full race manifold is very nice also.. fits perfect.

Yeah I have a logging setup. I'll try to do that soon.

Yeah my poor front mesh has seen better days. Probably over this winter, I'll pull it off and spray it black again. At least it will be a cheap investment.

Yeah it's a CF hood I had painted to match. I preferred it painted so it flowed better with the car.

Thanks!!!

Thank Jarrod. That they do.

Not to mention it wasn't even a cool day. I'm sure it would pick a few more ponies in colder temps.

Oh ok so it was painted black then. Ya, the carbon fiber on silver im not a fan with either, I would of painted also! I can imagine removing the vent mesh is a pain in the ***. I got cut up pretty bad on mine before just trying to move them alittle.

now you have a very solid mod list.. enjoy the car. I have put my 2.3 through hell and back and they dont give up easy.. unless you try to run them on 1 quart of oil

keep an eye on your oil level every gas fill up!

Hey...don't give up on the E85 just yet. Buy a few 5 gallon cans from WMart and just carry your gas around...doesn't smell as bad as pump 93

I just made it back yesterday driving back from the tune, and was still getting 22mpg highway...so its doable as a daily driver for sure...

See you at Auto X...can't wait to see your setup...glad to have you back on the road.

Thanks Jim. I've considered it a few times for sure. I'd have to buy bigger injectors and a double pumper. Not exactly a cheap investment. I'm just not sure what I want to do with the car next year. I'd like to pick up another cheap set of NT03 wheels so I could get a dedicated set of tires for road course. I've also considered putting a cage in the car. Plus the formerly mentioned power option. Choices. Choices.

See you on Sunday for AutoX unless it's just a complete washout.

Yeah 1st autox out took FTD. That was a nice start back. Lots of comments on how the car sounded and looked like a beast out on track.

Should have my 2nd one this Sunday assuming weather holds off.

Seibon. I painted it to match car rather than dealing with the CF.

Excellent! Glad you did win like I heard. Best of luck on the next one! What class do you run and on what tires?
