Gotta finish up at least one project down here first, just waiting on other people to ship things Need Tiff's turbo manifold back from Stainless Works, and need her torrington spring perch bearing and QA1 rear shocks from Thunder. Both are expected any day now.

After several conversations w/ James and John @ RWTD, I thought they were up to the task. Yesterday we had fun figuring out that the stock fuel pump + voltage booster still wouldn't get the job done...so late this afternoon I installed a Walbro 340 [255 lph] pump. Minor exhaust leak to correct as well...still, the midrange JOLT is nice, even at low boost. Once everything is dialed, methanol on, revs up...

James and John know their tuning. They are quite proficient w/ the software to tune for Predators, and have HPTuners 2.0 as well. HPT2.0 is NOT complete, either! More work to be done by the HPT programmers. But, the car has great drivability...and we'll get it finished shortly.

As far as the STS 2005 kit: they haven't had a car yet so they don't have one. This is the first, and they aren't going to release one until they get a car there to Utah, so it will be a complete kit. There are enough differences between the 2004 and 2005 goats that it is a bit of work: diff exhaust system, diff location of coolant tank [has to go!], larger MAF, larger TB, shorter injectors w/ different 'plug'...etc. What an adventure!
