I'm motivated. Hopefully it won't take me too long to come up with the funds to piece it together. I'll give you a call tomorrow. Thanks.
hehe... figured that might get a laugh. Bottom line: When I start kicking around ideas about how to approach a friend's project, especially one that genuinely interests me as well and is something with which I will accept no less than the best possible results, expect me to get busy and do some homework.

dimond pistons (sponsers carry them to the right) has alot of different pistons CR available for the ls1, aka alot of boost pistons.

i am shooting for 600rwhp on 94 octane with my 8.9:1, might take some tunning, but i think shes got it in her.
if you can only get 91 or 92 you might want to go 8.5:1, i wouldnt go any lower then that

So I should bring my U-pipe?

Thanks I've been reading plently and are confident the car will haul ***. If it doesn't we'll just have put my old boost controller on it. That'll make anything ride out.

We have 93 on tap here, but I ultimately want to use a water/alcohol injection kit. A few of you may be aware that I sell FJO widebands. FJO has a boost and TPS Sensitive water injection system that will be released soon.

If any of you are interested I can let you know more details as they are available to me. I'm hopeing to run this setup on my vehicle. Check out my website at [plug]www.widebando2.com.[/plug]
