Alright Joe I was able to get down to this.
I just need to know if you can do the rest so I can began getting ready.
This is what I finish talking to Matt from ZZP
You think it can be done? and whats the best time december and january to do it?
This is a set up so i could use a short ram intake.
Thanks.

Ok, then as I said, we could sell you a setup similar to our twincharge kit, except without the intercooler tubes running from the IC to the throttle body. You would need to have tubing made to run to the TB. We wouldn't be able to finish the kit without having your car, so you would need someone that can fabricate the last charge tube.

Thanks.
Really?
I can make the pipe, it's a little more work, but it's possible. Where exactly is that pipe going to? From where to the TB, the I/C outlet?
What breaks the block it the peak torque, not the ramp in, so you are loading the motor the same really as far as that is concerned. If you aren't trying to hit it too hard off the jump or drag race it, you can make the stock clutch work. Your call though, if you do happen to crack a piston, at least the car stays running (in every one i've seen at least, even with 3 pistons cracked, the car was still drivable).
I'd say, throw a clutch at it, good tune, hope the bottom end holds. If it pops, you're looking at like $1000 in parts (pistons, H/G, bolts etc), and you have basically a built bottem end that will take any sane amount of power.

I mean.. really... its not like floor it everywhere i go.. im quite conservative... i dont throw the pedal right to the ground... i normally go halfway to about 8-10 psi then hit it... and even then im cautious about going wot...
Wideband should be hooked up soon.. ive been quite lazy about it... but i havent been driving hard so im alright with it...
For some reason i feel i can jusitfy not getting the sleeves right now due to how i normally drive... but my miles are starting to get high and im just unsure about how the car was treated before i got it...

And I have a question concerning brakes.
If i change the pads are alright?
Are the disc going to hold?
I won't be running to much, and if do probably will be occasionally (track o rarely on street)

Keep an eye out for a new clutch for me. I have mine out already. Looking to spend under $500 installing myself. The cheaper the better. Have plenty of time with no job.
Since my clutch hyd is messing up when I floor it I am gonna start looking for a new clutch that someone is selling. I flushed the hyd and nothing changed so I figure it is the slave cyl on the top of the tranny. Might as well do a clutch at the same time.
Right now leaning towards the GMPP clutch. What parts do I need? I believe the GMPP comes with clutch/pressure plate/TOB I have been searching but people seem to post what they think is right.
parts list:
downloaded GMPP clutch install
clutch
pressure plate
TOB
flywheel new/resurface/lightweight if resurface where local?
slave cylinder

I'm heading out there in about an hour, you guys should come. Between the weather and the holiday weekend, it will be PACKED. Just don't get crazy, watch where people are going, keep an eye out for cops.
