Default Possible gains.....

My new mods: Fast Toys 85mm lid, SLP 85mm MAF, FTRA and UD pulley. I wanted to see what you guys think my possible gains are from those mods I just recently did. Also it would probably greatly benefit me if I get a custom tune, I still running a base map in my predator. Do you think 11.5s would be achievable?

Thanks,

Matt

Yeah I think it will be achievable for sure. What do you have for a lid now? Your car is sick btw.

Thanks Mike, its coming along. Your car is running strong too. I need to get a bigger stall over the winter, not sure what size yet though. I did have a slp lid with stock maf. This past weekend installed the fast toys lid, and slp maf. I am going to install the FTRA tomorrow. Recently I installed a ud pulley. I'm sure real tune will help me some too.

Yeah, cecil is too far, but idk. I would have to rent a car trailer and go up there, in case something broke. Definitely let me know about getting people together for opening weekend at MIR or Capitol.

yeah man opening day was great last year hopefuly this year we can get a decent turn out from our group and I can see your car run. Yeah cecil is a hike and damned if I would make that trip without a trailer but if you pm rel3rd I am sure he could tell you wats up with cecil and how he likes it.

How does that lid fit Matt? I heard they hit the hood on some Camaros. I'd like to get one. Maybe you could let me test yours on my car at MIR this spring.
