Damon, you need to come down to beech bend Nov. 3rd. That's when I'm going. It would be cool to have two maggie f-body's there. Not to mention a few other local fbody's will be there. I just need to get my 7lb pulley from Ed and hopefully figure out a way to quit throwing belts off. I've done everything I know to do. I'm wondering if I just happened to get a bad tensioner.

Power curves looks to be one hell of a daily driver street car. More than enough power....all over the rpm band. I like it.

Thanks guys. SO far this thing is a blast to drive, torque is just stupid on my Goodyears I am running. I scared the **** out of the wife just by punching it in 3rd. Makes merging and passing cars on the road alittle quicker to say the least I finally capped off the Borla it was WAY too loud. Its still loud, but it is tollerable for now.

Tim,
Beech Bend huh. Let me see what I can do. I do not see why I couldn't make it. I got a few rattles and what not that are bugging me. Plan on working those this month sometime. I will prolly buy some DR's later this week. I am needing them. Its constantly like driving on damn ice in the lower 3 gears. Gotta play with the peddle just a bit more then normal. Most of it though is due to my crappy tires

It does appear that I have a flat spot on one of my tires. I think I am going ot try out my line lock and get her round again Videos soon to come

CONGRATS, Damon!!!!! Glad to see that you got it all together and worked out, those are some very impressive numbers too. Looks awesome, now I really can't wait to get home and get my tune tweaked to see what I can do. Maggie with a 2.9 pulley, and the same heads and cam on an A4 and 3.42's, should be pretty sweet. Gotta love that break'em free power on a whim.

Ed,

I gotta get somebody over to the house and get the ECU out to send to you yet, having some issues right now with that. Very awesome setup and I can't wait to have some serious fun time with mine.

I have other ECM's if it's easier, I can program one for you and ship it wherever the car is.

PM me when you get a chance, and we'll take care of it.

You sure that thing's not a diesel? That's some torque for a DD at 1500-2000 rpm!

Sounds like your enjoying the car. You happen to ever check your mileage? I do everytime i fill up, i usually get about 12.5 but it seems as the TPS is always at 100%?

Yea that is about normal for me too I have to watch my shifting to make sure I am always under 2000. As I go into boost there goes the gas lol. I was enjoying the car but its sitting right now and will be for some time.

That's some pretty good mileage. I'm anxious to see what mine will do. It's fun to watch the gas guage go down when you hit the throttle for about
.01 seconds, then reality hits until you hit the throttle again and feel the power nail you in the seat.
