I'm running 10psi w/meth on a bone stock internal engine and a very conservative tune.

KP I seen your car but I didn't get a chance to come check it out or say hey. Sorry about that.

No problem, I seen you pull through the 'street' lanes and noticed the STS sticker and watched you run - then you were in front of me on my last pass. Either way its one of the only pretty much stock STS cars I have seen run well at the track so far, I'm sure it will get quicker.

By the time you buy the kit and the supporting parts injectors, pump etc I would say around 5,000. The tires are 26x10.50 16's et streets. I'm going to put my 16" street radials back on and see what they can do.

Seat of the pants: Historically inaccurate measuring device as you refuse to believe all those hours of work were in vain because it MUST be better now than when you started.

Ahhhh it is AWESOME..... The sound alone is worth all the hard work...

It still has some bugs, the rear end I bought needs to have the backlash set... it is very loose. Still taking some getting used to.

I did however get out of a ticket for doing 70 in a 40 because I got the Cop interested in my setup. I was playing with the blow off and accelerating right when I saw him.

He liked the way is sounded and started asking me questions.... whew.

Is it common for my HP/TQ numbers? Sean at Fastech and others I have talked to are pretty impressed by the TQ #'s..... we are guessing its the cam?
