edit: oh yeah, sorry i forgot about your question. Im running stock clutch and shitty summoto tires or something like that. I doubt id hit a 4 k launch. but it'd be fun to try
Best add a new panhard bar if you are going over the axle and out the back.

Looking at your mod's I think I will be nice only use the wife's car, CAI and headers, not even a converter in it.

Best thing you did was over sleep this morning with a stock clutch. MIR is a clutch killin track if they prep'd it in the least bit. But those tires might have saved the clutch.

Anyone know how much a tow from MIR back down here is? What is the going rate now with fuel cost where they are at now days. AAA only gets you about 1/2 way here.

Have fun out on the boat.

Let me guess the O2's are fairly close to the end of the exhaust before. There was some reversion going on and they were reading air being sucked back up in the collector.

When Chad scanned the car were they stuck around .1XX mv? There might not be anything wrong with them.

the o2s are in the regular location...and i have 16'' extensions on each collector...

brian and chad both said the o2s were dead..but i dont know what they were reading exactly. maybe brian or chad remembers what they were reading.

it was still kinda hunting for an idle when i would rev it, but it would find one after a few seconds.

They were dead, mostly flatlined high or low with a small bit of switching in between (this was after replacing the fuse). Were you able to check the wires? Is the fuse still blowing? The idle needs to be retuned and the O2s aren't helping it any. Is it still bogging off the line?

i havent driven it since. It popped the one morning I drove it, and in the afternoon I drove it home and it was fine. I will be driving it tomorrow morning, so I will see how it does then. I changed the plugs and fixed the loose terminal on the battery. The wires looked good, and I didnt see anything wrong with them. Im going to try and get it tuned as soon as I can.

Brian told me to get ne o2's and it helped mine out alot getting the corvette rear Bosch 13111 o2 sensors! + you can sell your old o2" Extensions.

brian tuned my car for about 30 mins and it runs great! No surging at all! Goes straight to idle i love it! here is a cold start vid

Nah door to door, both on 93 octane, I'll give you the kick What did Jeff say on Pinks about 20 cars?I still think you should do away with that stock ECU and do a newer faster flash PCM. Then you can use the a newer smaller MAF. It's good up to 690rwhp and newer are good to 900rwhp. I drove the 900+ C5 that Jeff did and it drove like stock C5.

I broke the mid 13's on my stock lil skittle!!! 13.6@102. I couldnt break better then a 2.0 60'.... She has more in her. I was launching at 3500rpms with no wheel spin.... Next time I will try a 4k see what happens. I was only seeing 14psi with the AGP WGA(stock boost), so I want to bump it up to 18psi and see if I can break into the low 13's.... Oh yea, me and Shawn added some 116octane to her....

well, i drove the car to work and back just now...and its driving fine

its not bogging down at all anymore, and it just burns the tires up if i get on it in first or second gear. weird, right?

the exhaust is leaking a lil around the band clamps that hold the x pipe to the collectors...but its been doing that for a while. I thought i felt a small vibration on the highway at ~70mph, but i couldnt pinpoint it, and it didnt do it all the time. i think it might be the front end out of alignment/tires need to be rebalanced.

other than that....good to go still needs a tune of course.
