Default Guess what...

My headers have been on for a few days now. It's a beast with the Spintech and side exit. I'm going to the dyno Wednesday and doing some racing this weekend so I'll get you gentlemen some videos.


Man that transmission dipstick is a pain to get bolted back on there!!!!

I just got my collector welded up to my cat and now it sounds like a beast with my spintechs! Power is insane, so Ive got to get my intake on now. Can't wait for your dyno results. Yes, that trans dipstick bolt is a real *** kicker, as well as the clamps. Its fun to punch it, and let the tires fry... seriously!

My car hasn't seen a cat since about a month after I got it lmao.

Not gonna lie. Launch at 3k with traction control off and I changed lanes.

You know, i been thinking about what id like the end result of my car to be... i dont think i want to go turbo in the end... not anymore. For reasons like this... ^^^ i think i'll end up getting the headers later. Even if i did miss the group buy. Oh well, money spent on the wimpy trans.

When it shifted to second, was there some sort of delay?

I get one once in a while, it feels like I'm hitting the rev limiter, it kills my 1/4 mile runs.

You probably are. I had to have mine bumped up after the tune.

Both shift points and rev lmiter are raised, one more reason I need to get a dyno tune and not this Superchips. But I can't complain too much, she still runs good.

Rev limiter needs to be higher than the shift point. The transmission takes a while to shift and you'll end up running past it into the limiter.
