Do you have the catted x-pipe or non-catted? And if non-catted how loud is it without cats?

Buddy got his car back here in GA. Engine has made over 1000whp in Terry Reeves stalled auto and went 9.0@151 on E85. Buddy didnt want to push it that high and E85 isnt available everywhere here. He is doing a race tune to take over 800whp on 93/torco mix.

You could get by with the 90/92 and they don't have the idle issue. If you want the 102 I can tell you how to fix the idle issue.......no programming required

the ewp ends up being a neat mod when you do a couple more tricks to go with it..

10k mile turbo is basically junk.. A friend of mine was taking it apart to install a bigger turbine wheel. The bearing and thrust surfaces and housings are junk. Going to cost another 250 plus 275 for the wheel upgrade.. Freaking ridiculous. What are you guys running for an oil filter for your turbo?

no.. I got it out of 4th. 3rd is a no show. all other gears shift fine. there's no funny noises in the trans. then in gets stuck in 4th again. when trying to put it in 3rd you can feel it rubbing on a gear, but it wont go in or even grind. seems like a shift fork or something.

Koni shocks for traction. I'm still on stock tq arm with lca's. but the koni's was by far the most notable traction improver.

If you get a intake it needs to be ported. You can send it to me if you want. Of course there are several sponsors doin it too.
