No real reason other than I had a head here and did not want to spend much more money. The BR head probably would have made more power at lower boost though.

I know you covered this at some point but what's the current goals with the new RS and the Ricer? I know you intend to use the RS as a daily driver (a very potent one at that); is Shawna still getting the Ricer and if so in what form?

I had the option and the opportunity, but honestly, I would rather see that particular car go fast. Very fast.

Im sorry if this has been covered but what throttle body is being used? Skunk2 FullBlown or something else. Im a huge fan of anything that comes out of your guys shop if not only for the cleanliness and attention to detail. Everything thing else is icing on the cake.

It has a fullblown TB on it. Works really good with the skunk intake manifold.

Emery, have you looked at how much hp you gain by loosing lets say 5lbs of rotational mass per wheel? or what ever number you have seen. like to get your thoughts on what you have seen over the years.

We have tested lighter weight brakes on the dyno and the results are actually in this thread.
