I did the swap when I was lid/catback, and I could feel it everywhere. I only gained .05 in the 1/4, but it felt better all across the rev range. I'm sure it made a bigger contribution once my LT's went on.

Yea, I like showing you guys rowing them my tails.

Honestly I have only seen 1-2 other cars with similar mods to mine and anywhere near the same weight run equal times to mine. They are out there but it isn't the norm I guess.

Mine doesn't pull too bad on the top end but an equal modded m6 would definitely get me up top no doubt, whether it could make up the difference from the 60' I don't know.

In all honesty my dyno numbers are a bit deceiving and that is the reason I love throwing them out there.

Finally getting my car back tonight w/ the 85mm typhoon intake and 85mm tb. Previously I was running a stock intake and a ported stock TB. Seeing that there isnt much feedback from this intake ill give my honest opinion tommorow.

96mm seems a little big for his setup?

Brian would have to hit those times and bang the shifts like hell to run a 7.1X with that RWHP... Not going to happen. I would assume high 7s-low 8s@88-90mph or so depending on the DA and how well he drives. Just a guess though.

Brian, I am by no means calling your car slow nor my car quick/er than anyone elses. I am simply stating that my car does not run what your typical 375Rwhp full weight car runs, or a car with similar mods.
