I look over at him he points he finger telling me to go so I drop to third he GAVE ME!! the jump and then bitch slaped me in the face!! All in all the camaro did alright. He did not pull as hard as I thought he would and only put 2 cars on me by the time we shut it down around the top of 4th!!

Not enough air coming in.... As soon as I upgrade the manifold, I will bump to the 150s and see how she likes it. I know the whole drivetrain, tires, and fuel system can handle it, so....

Once he assembles his future combo, I'm sure he will put the extra 50 hp to good use. I BETTER be the first race Sean!!! Then my hand will be forced and I will have to install my kit .
Well I need to see how bad you smoke me tomorrow night first!!! If that happens, something might be in the works alil sooner then planned....

Makes sense... I could tell a VERY noticeable difference between the 100 and the 150 on the stock truck intake... I wonder why the car manifold differs in that area, either that, or I'm being a retard and just spraying the 150 for the hell of it LOL... as soon as I put on that 90MM TBSS manifold it'll be 200 pills until she blows...

I think the 4.10's will help you alot....
But my instant torque from the shot will help. Up top Ive got a few ponies over you, but we will see.... Whoever can shift the **** out their car better will most likely win.
