I'll probably see some of you in Austin for the MZM dyno day.

I'll put my numbers up in a separate thread. Went with the Stage 1.
Agreed, Most all of us like the STi EVO and WRX damn near the same- All you guys were great to meet- I gotcha LeWayne thought you were Armondo- You want to meet isn Seguin tomorrow or friday to get some trap speeds for stage 1s?? Armondo too hes a big dragger

Hello guys, Bill, MP5--thank you guys for all the help. This was a very fun event and hope we can all meet again some day. Last night, I g-teched my car(296.5 on 93 octane map and 316.8 on 100 map). I only ran my car on the 93 map until I get race gas at the track this Thursday. It was 92 degrees and humidity was 88 percent--hot as hell. Not really taking off hard(3000 rpm launches), don't want to fry my clutch just yet, I ran a 12.89@106 and a 12.94 @106. When I take it to the track, I will runs both maps and see the time improvements. I will also be doing 6-6500 rpm launches to get killer 60 foot times and hoping for at least a 12.5-12.6 et. I can't say how happy I am with my car. To me this is so cool. Before, I've had numerous cars including corvettes, vipers, and camaro's. I sold my MTI built Head and Cam package Camaro SS(456 rwhp) 11.30 et's for this car. I am having more fun in this car because nobody expects it. I'm the sleeper and amazed what this little motor can do--I'm so happy--Laters guys--Vishnu is #1!!!!!!

I wanna be smelling burning tires and clutches from all the way over here

Have fun guys. Even the 93 octane mapped folks want to take advantages of running a race gas mix if temps are hot. Will help counter the effects of the heatsoak that most folks experience while waiting in line.

Cheers,

I have almost 15k on my clutch and it's still working alright. It's been roasted a 2-3 times and launched a bunch at AutoX this season.

I think it might be starting to soften up just a bit, but the upside is that it bogs less on the launch that way!

Well that was the event that it rained. Damn, my memory must be going... I don't really remember. This is going to drive me nuts. You sure it was me and not Zeus?
