I am installing the GSC S2's along with the BC springs/retainers. I do have a few sets of HKS cams sitting around along with a spare ACT 6puck clutch just in case

Yes, I am on E85. It's awesome stuff.

That's an 1/8 mile strip, correct? How is the surface and the facilities?

Don't forget we're having a huge NC Evo meet on June 28th at Rockingam 1/4 mile dragway, there will probably be a good dozen Evo's from Charlotte driving there in one group. Make sure you mark your calendar and ask questions in this thread:

Other dynos you have to add 20 more % of your cars hp. But this dyno is very accurate and you do not have to do that.

Mustangs, Superflows, etc tend to read very accurately. Dynojets are typically optimistic. I have heard Taylor has "adjusted" his Mustang dyno to read like a Dynojet.

Who is Kasey?

Kasey is the e85 guru tuner, if you want a very good tuner to work on your car you need to give him a call you won’t regret it. He is the one who tuned our cars at the dyno.

LOL man to each his own but the way i look at it in essence is buying an Evolution so you can drag race it is like paying for a $2,500 high class hooker just so you can talk to her either way your not getting all you can get out of her

But like i said to each his own

I dont find road racing interesting at all, and racing around a parking lot bores me. A spirited trip down a country road is very fun though

But I wont talk down about anyone who doesn't share the same opinion. Thats the best thing about living in a free country

I was just generally speaking i just so happened to use your quote.

Sorry my statement offended you, my apologies.

"But I wont talk down about anyone who doesn't share the same opinion."

Smart choice

Does he have a local shop? What's the best way to contact him?

Have you tried HPDE? I enjoy spirited drives through country roads, but the risk can be much higher than a controlled environment like a HPDE. The radiator neck on my E36 M3 broke while on Deal's Gap. Coolant on the rear tires and mountain roads don't mix well. Almost ended up off the side of the mountain.
