yeah for the first round, i tried dialling in at 11.2, but he changed it at the line to 11.5. i was gonna run it out regardless; too bad exhaust separated.

i haven't seen SFC's for it. but i want a rollbar (bob/NRC?) before next season.
they sell LCA's with rod-ends which might help the hop. they also have a "diff brace" that ties the pumpkin to a crossbar/floor area.

Is it that or is this just another case of time, road racing and street driving working things loose along with a band clamp not holding the Y and I pipes together well enough....we've all seen it before on the F-bodies too.
