6 psi? damn...Well, I guess spring pressure doesn't matter as much since it recirculates and won't really matter if the BOV opens...I made some shims at work today to try and shim the 8 psi spring and make it work like a 9 psi spring...10 psi is still too stiff...

I may have some update pics to post tonight of my Toxicfab Tubular manifold & cam able heat shield cover...also of the shims I made up to shim my Tial 8 psi spring so the driveability will be a bit better.
HOPEFULLY I will be entering the stock appearing class at Englishtown tomorrow!! I have a buddy coming over and we are going to do some logging and hopefully get my a/f ratio where it should be an the tune a little better for the event tomorrow...
Also want to thank Jason @ Spec-Ops for some help over the past week or so I've had with my maps and whatnot...

Also I weighed my car at Englishtown this weekend...definitely far from being light...scale was hard to see but I'm pretty sure it said 3350 with me in it & I weigh 180...That was with a 1/3 of a tank of gas, no spoiler & the spare tire crap taken out...
I'm lovin' watching your build. I'll hopefully have some good stuff coming to share as well. Time will tell, though.
I've got my full-race manifold swain coated as well, and it has well over 50k miles on it, but has started cracking/fading like your manifold/hotside did. I'm going to go else where for my coating next time.

I forgot to ask, are you going to CBRD's dyno day on Nov. 6th? My gf and I will def be there. We plan on leaving Friday so that we don't have to drive so early on Saturday. Let me know if you want to roll out since we're not far at all from one another.
