that was a lot to read but dudes got a lot of mods.
though you never mentioned if you felt gains from the port and polish on the head.

I don’t have an aftermarket cam, I just have the adjustable cam gear. Everywhere I read you don’t get a cam till you have lots of other supporting mods. The cam gear is 4 oz lighter than the stock. So yes it does help the engine spin up a little quicker and this does help MPG! I have not fiddled with it. I will be doing this in December when I go to the dyno.

if you guys think it's impressive reading the list--i've been in the car. i also got to experience that flat-spotting on the tires firsthand. woohoo. pulling up next to adam you would have no idea that all this stuff is under the hood (and everywhere else). the car looks almost completely stock, it's very clean.

hey adam, if you need someone to take some pictures of the car i could bring my digital camera when we put the teins on. oh, and are you guys going out to devens on sunday? if my car is all squared away by then i totally want to register!
