I'll be out next weekend, I've been busy... 
Head install is finished. Been driving around for a bit to see how much tuning I’ll need to do. I can already tell these heads are putting out a lot more power. Mid range and top end feel awesome! I’m going to call Abacus on Monday to try and schedule some dyno time next Saturday to get some #s and dial in the top end.

We should be out next Sat. Not sure how long since we might be going to MIR on Sunday......
Had a blast this weekend away..... the Shannandoa Valley is an awsome place to drive around and see VA.

you liked the ride around the block then??

Damn man..... that sucks... the oil leek problem should be a real quick fix... sounds to me like its not done right... he might not have a oil restrictor in his feed line and is probably blowing to much oil into the turbo..... if ya know him or see him and talk to him anyone send him my way and ill try and help him out....................
Where did ya see him at???
Send him to Jenro's or Bass Pro....
I started thinking....... not sure if ill be at Bass Pro int he car if we race on sunday....... i have 118 in the tank..... and that can be kinda spendy to drive out there and back...... $11.50 a Gal LOL

-I tried to give the the guy some advice but it seemed like he wasnt trying to hear it... Seems like the only person he was trying to listen to was Jason @ Steen....

I was wondering if any of you have the capability's on helping me out with a tune, Just something a little better than stock, cause I am going to have to drive the Car to Washington in a month, and I don't want to have to pay 400 to 500 hundred for it, But just maybe a 100 or so to get me by.
I should be out the weekend after next, I am currently in Wa, But if the weather permits, you think you guys would be up for a cruise to Bass pro? From Jenro's I think it would be fun to get a few people at a time to do it..
There are some badass rides over here too. I seen a 02 Z28 Over here, that had a 408 fully forged with a twin turbo set up, that thing was mean.

I'm gonna try to head out there. I'd be up for rolling to bass pro after jenro's. I need to get some info from you guys on getting a cam. I want to try a Cam + Stock heads. I need to do some research though.
