wow... good stuff works....

I know this is as repetitive as you can get in this section, but it has to be said......

Thanks Works for your great service, advice, and parts! I had the 269s/valvetrain done.... after the 2 hour break in drive around the bay i got to test her out a little.... all I can say is that the gains were a little more than expected! Car pulls MUCH harder now.

I've never experienced such great service and professionalism at any auto related shop before. It's now pretty obvious why so many people are such devoted Works followers... I'll see you guys in a couple weeks or so for more stuff =D

Stormtrooper...I totally agree with you. Their service is top notch and they are very easy going guys. I cant wait to get my cams along with a few other things next week, although, I'll be breaking in the clutch so it will be a while before I can test it out

mmoranda..... no way man, i don't think you were able to put down a clean run on Sunday or else you would have had me by at least couple seconds still.... For instance, the "timer" run probably would have been a quick one! I am very glad that we got the timer back up running pretty fast again using your makeshift wirestripper and pocket knife...

You guys didn't miss anything... there were no fun runs and nothing eventful happened. How did things go at Laguna?

marksae, great meeting you too, i guess i'll be seeing you there often at the shop =D

Lift and duration are different and, of course, manufacturer.

Ours tend to provide a broader powerband as well. They may not peak out as others do, but we're after useable power and not as concerned with the numbers. (Although you'll gain at least 29HP/29TQ with them )

yeah.... man it does pull like a totally different car, seems like it just keeping building more and more power, 5k and up is pretty amazing! The only problem now is that I'm totaly addicted; the only thing I've been thinking about is what I can get from Works next. I better start hiding credit cards........
