Oh and I tried weighing at a scrap yard once and turned around and left because the dirt was so filled with screws, nails, and other shrapnel it wasn't worth leaving with 4 flat tires over..

It's not the miles - more the age.

Now it's got a racetronix pump/hotwire and asa injectors - I'm wondering if it'll pickup....took a complete retune to get the afr's back in check.

I'm excited too, There hasn't been a documented stock internal car that I know of that has had everything I am going to have... doesn't mean it will be faster, but it sure will be interesting to see the results.

I am not gonna lie, Im really hoping that between the 104mm Lid, 100mm MAF, 102mm TB, 102mm intake, EWP, 1-7/8ths headers, and a real AFR tune I can pick up 2 tenths and mph... but who knows!!

Typically I've been good at taking weight out, NOT at making the most horsepower!

I'm sure you'd have two tenths and maybe two MPH in the tune by itself. It's going to need a tune really bad after you swap over to that 104mm lid and 100mm MAF. Anything you change to the MAF or to the intake tract before the MAF will throw the calibration off. My stock MAF calibration changed about 10-15% from just swapping the stock air box to a crummy whisper lid.

GEAR AND TIRE!!!

Get the combination right - the hardest part is getting the damn car off the line without spinning, and without bogging.

Higher gear,taller tire...

Oh and as an FYI, when I was SI, I was on the stock LS6 type intake, stock balancer, and didnt have much weight out of the car.
