Squale n da houZ! Sup everybody. I'm Tony, live in Ohio... I've been racing a notchback mustang for a few years, then had an urge to buy another Z28 like I used to own...except this one's a drop top w/LS1. So um, ya....It's got Borla catback and an SLP air lid. I need to know, where can I purchase one of those roll bars for the convertible? I want it for safety, and b/c they look cool. Also, any recommendations on what to modify first to help my top end? I was thinking full length headers and the whole y-pipe deal. What should I do on the intake side of things besides the SLP lid? Thanks.
what is a squale?
what year is your z28? that will show if you have an ls1 or ls6 intake, if you have an ls1, you can pick up an ls6 for about 325$ and pick up around 15+ or so hp. the FAST 90 setup is much better, but will run around 725$, and isnt the best bang for the buck, until you start getting into higher HP setups where it really opens up and shines.
i'd go longtubes and X pipe, to true duals. thats the best flowing system besides cutouts.
lid is definately a must, can also port and descreen your MAF and throttle body yourself.

LOL. I just tried to register on daytonfbody's site....says my email has been banned...both of them LOL. I've never even been on the site!..I don't think? Maybe when I was drunk and don't remember?hahaha

Didn't stay long b/c it didn't look like I was gonna pick up any races and I had just got my bottle filled at Precision lol.

I'm off all weekend tho so maybe we can do it then?So you get your bottle filled at Precision..My car is on their site..With the old cam it put down 424rwhp(per site),but corrected it was 417 rwhp 407rwt..Its the NBM formula on their site "john valks" formula..
I just had my friend Marc stab in my new cam and it now puts down 435rwhp 407rwt(corrected)..Precision may have a copy of my new dyno sheet if you want to look at it..
So what mods do you have done to your notch besides the spray? how big of a shot,and hows traction on the street?
I now have a turbo kit..dont know when or if I'll install it as a 75 shot would put me over 500rwhp and would be easier..Have to think about it
Yeah back to me this weekend..I should be home by 4pm,but not positive,if not we can try next week
