Yeah... Sorda got shafted on that too... Payed at guy at Harmons Body shot in Hampton named Cody to paint my car black and take a DA to the bumpers and get them nice and smooth... Well got the car back and it was black with a cooper pearl and he sprayed the bumpers with undercoating! ******* *******, he was to lazy to do the body work and just said buy new bumpers and he would spray them... He last words were hope you like what i did with the color! i mean what was i supposed to say he said give him only like $350 for the whole base, clear job... Sorda just keep getting the short hand

Before, Ed couldn't even give it WOT. Because it was running way way lean.

Yea and the guy who had the car before Lt1junkie did a hack job on it so I would say he's done a good job with it so far it is really to bad about the shaft he got. But yea the biggest problem with his car was the heads or lack there of.

Naw Brian Herter had the PCM twice for tune.... And it was off pretty badly.... Um i think it was like 345/360... Then i ended up getting like 359/38? i can't remember off hand and the dyno sheet is in the car... And like i said ed believed it came from a lack of head work... So i called the builder and he sorda came clean, said he only cleaned it up and reseated them for 2.02 1.60 and didn't even port it at all,... I mean what can i do now already been fucked
SO i am just going to spray the hell out of it!! and change the heads and cam this winter.. then get the gauranted HP i paid for once already

It had been tuned. The displacement was changed. The IFR. And some other ****.
The 02s where hacked off, so it was running in open loop. I got it to run at stoich at cruise with no 02 feedback, and wot fueling was 13:1.
Gains were right at 20 hp. That was from when I could get a full pull out of it for a good before run.
But hey, maybe he'll come over to ya'll to see what you can do with it.
