The car was 3110 without any of this stuff. And I'm not sure about the EWP, I changed a lot of other stuff at the same time.

 

Looks good

 

Thanks. It'd look a lot better if you'd come over and help...

 

You should lose a considerable amount of weight with what you've just changed. That alone should pick you up a decent amount of ET.

 

I will I will... I have a lot of **** due. Its finals time so ill come help soon hoe.

 

lol no worries man, I haven't even touched the car in almost two weeks


I need to paint the intake and engine bay now and I'm really not looking forward to it. Plus I've been in and out of town and I'll be heading out again this weekend so I don't see much progress coming any time soon

 

Wow, you were riding out before and your making some BIG changes! It's gonna scoot for sure! Whats your goal? Just fastest M6 SI or ya shooting for 10's??

 

My only real goal is quickest SI M6. 10's would be sweet but I think my motor may be a little too tired for that at over 90k, still on the stock trans also so that will be something to look out for. Plus I had a decent N2O backfire a while back that toasted up my intake pretty good, no telling what the pistons look like

We'll see what happens when it hits the track again. If I get it under 11.3 with what I have now, I'll switch over to a spool w/ 4.56's and I've got a few more ideas to drop another 100lbs or so... maybe a faceplated T-56, but that kinda seems like cheating.

 

Good luck running your number. When will you have this stage of mods finished and get the car back to the track?

 

Hard to say really, I haven't even touched it in almost a month due to work and... procrastination. I'm taking some vacation soon to get a good bit of work done on it. Hoping to have it running again within the next month then have to break in the clutch, so track times possibly in July

 

July?

My best mod was Cecil County fall and spring track hits... Negative DA's are great.

 

I know it's about the worst time to hit the track but that's when I think it'll be ready

Oh, and one of my 11.5x runs were in +1900 DA

 

11.5 at +1900 is impressive!

 

Yeah that was my first and only track trip on my SD tune before my fuel system **** on itself. I ran the time in my sig a while back when I was still using the MAF, I think that was around +400DA. Then the nitrous backfire destroyed my MAF so I switched over to SD and it went 11.5x @ 118.x five times in a row in 1900 DA. I wish I could have run it in good weather before I did all this new stuff.

 

Honestly, If you get some good weather after all these mods and assuming the fuel system is squared away.. I wont be surprised at all to see a 10 out of it.. Negative DA does a lot!

 

I know -DA is great, I ran my first SS in -800 and it went 12.7 with just nitto dr's and a catback. It's gonna be a while before we see it here again though

Oh, I'm hoping to have the intake finished this week and engine bay done this weekend so the motor could be going in by next week or so. I'll post up pics when I get some.

 

It's ok, you will have plenty of time to get the bugs worked out and suspension dialed in before the cold weather comes.. I'm trying to get my moser 9 together, in cold weather I'm hoping for a 11.5-7 @ 118-119 w/ 1.6's

 

Man i love these SI cars, You guys just beat the **** out of them and put up great times. cant wait for my set up so i can beat it like i stole it. Good luck nssane02

 

updates??

 

I wish. I used the rest of my vacation last week with the intention of finishing it up then I messed up my back on tuesday and wasn't able to touch it. I don't even want to give an estimated finish time anymore cause it never works out. The biggest thing holding me back is still the paint, after that everything should go together pretty quickly.

I'm also stuck in a heated debate with myself on whether or not to pull the HVAC...
