Nice vid. Dig the music too.

This is a classic case of an SRT-4 owner wasting his money on a blow off valve and up pipe, neither of which will increase performance and are not needed at his level of boost. If he had taken the same money and put it into a boost controller and a wastegate actuator, the race would have been at least even, maybe him pulling away slowly even with his bad shifting. Funny.

the bov and uppipe was $35 through some friends in san jose, i don't know where you're going to find a electronic boost controller for that much.

Man, why can't I get those kind of hook ups??!! Manual boost controllers are around $50 and the best WGA is only $150 though. These would be even more worthwhile than the intake, of course he probably got that for ten bucks......

65 hehe, he doesn't want to raise the boost right now until he gets his AGP turbo kit, he doesn't really race it that's why. but the turbo kit comes with the boost controller and a/f ratio controller as well.

That's kind of the way I plan to go too. AGP is right up the road in TEMPE/Phoenix area. Once I get the SS all straightened out and reliable again, I think I'll go with the 50 trim AGP kit w/fuel mods and push 350+ to the wheels. What a great sleeper, especially here. I have already removed the wing...
