I don't know why but I love that gold foil on the valve cover. Reminds me of the mclaren F1, or the space shuttle. Badass build, all business.

Hahaha thanks man!


update: 5-8

Went to Buschur Racing to get tuned..hit a bad rain storm GPS freaked out and took us the wrong way but anyways got there 10mins before we need to..had some issues with the car. The injectors were being a pain in the *** and car wasnt making any power..car also had an oil leak nothing bad. Got the car back to the shop put a new oil filter on and cut the old one open to check for any metal in it and it was good..So the motor is good and the dip stick gasket had tear in it and that fixed that..now the car doesnt want to idle when you come to a hard stop but doesnt do it all the time..so I am going to check all the lines and make sure the cars timing is good

update:

So I posted up on my facebook about what was up with the car and what not after I got it tuned at the first place, how it didnt make much power and having some issues. That night I got a message from Jason at JS Dyno in Pittsburgh he was wondering why my car didnt make power and a few other things, he told me to bring it down one day and he wanted to check it out. So I took it down there got there at 10 took it off the trailer. He checked the compression first and check to see if any line were off or anything like that, everything was good. Next week put it on the dyno to see where it was from the last tune at 30psi made 228hp...so we boost leak tested it and the ported tb was leaking so we switchd it for a stock one and gasket. The system was all good so we hit the dyno again and had some more issues with it breaking up so we changed stock coils with other stock coils and then we went with the copper plugs and took out the irdium plugs. The car ran much better long story short we ended up with 415hp and 383torque at 28psi that seemed much better. He said there is more left in it but since I autox and road race he didnt want to go to crazy. Jason helped me out big time, he took his time didnt rush to get me done and out of there, I was really happy with the way I was treated there! But I am going to go with spoolin up cop and get a different lic pipe and go back for a retune..Ill keep you guys posted

Update 6-12-12


Well this past weekend I went to a autox in buffalo with some people from our region.There was 120 cars at the event, I was put into the highest class since I dont have much interior. I didnt care because I just wanted some seat time with the new setup. The event was nice and the track was fun, but the car just seemed very slow off the line. I had the old lady take a video of my run and you could just tell that it had a lot of lag. So Jason at JS Dyno watched the video and sent me another message. He said that the car seemed to have a lot of lag and that I should go with an curt brown ported evo9 turbo. He said it will spool a lot faster and should make around 400torque with the motor setup I have, and he said that he thinks I will **** my pants with that turbo. So I went looking for a evo9 turbo to buy, I found 1 with 30k on it and a good price so I am sending the money today for it. When I get it I am going to send it to curt to get ported than put it back on my car and go get a retune at JS. I am still going to get the Spooling up cop on top of the 9 turbo. I will have the ATP GTX3076r 4sale soon, it is a awesome street turbo and prob good for the drags just not the best for autox.
