Default 78mm Fast Intake and TB installed

Well its been almost 2 months doen time for the Z, polishing and powdercoating everything that could be removed off the car. Installed the Billet fuel rails, all braided lines, LSX intake, TB, new plugs & wires and lots of other sh*t that took way too long cause I've been doing it in my spare time.

Anyway the car started right up tonight (had a bit of a fuel leak , all fixed though), took it for a short spin and immediately noticed that it had some extremely crisp throttle response, kinda jumps now when I touch the accelerator pedal. You can definitely hear the drivetrain more, not too bad - kinda like it. Sorry no pics, too damn tired to take any.

Going to make an appt next week for a re-tune and dyno just in case the A/F is off. Tomorrow the SS spoiler and Hood gets installed by the body shop, atleast I can relax this weekend
