you have only mentioned it 500 times.

still not z06 fast tho. you need at least 450whp, are you saying you have 450whp?


travis is bone stock, do you really want him to start modding that car coz if he does he will lay a hurting down on you. finally you forget travis has a full nos kit too, because i dont have to buy his or yours. i also know where there is 2 other full kits for sale and they are not going anywhere. even have my choice in NOS or ZEX. not including tjay's.


try as you may kevin but im a firm believer in no replacement for displacement. if you do the same stuff to a v8 as you have to a 4banger, the v8 will win every time.

My kit isn't for sale I said I'd lend it to you.

Do you realize that a stock Z06 is 505hp at sea level? So you will lose around 50bhp for our altitude and then another 15% for driveline loss so that's around 385whp for that car here in Calgary

Yes if he starts modding there will be issues but as things sit, no problem and I will bet both of you guys too if you are so sure

i am not going to argue it kevin just do it. i can promise you this, if you do beat him it will be the only time. coz knowing travis the way i do he will mod that car in a heartbeat and then your done. a simple tune will make him out of reach im sure.


also i bet he is still over 400 to the wheels. so you better hook up some naws coz your ricer math needs some back up.

Does that mean your car only makes around 340whp due to the elevation?

actually i seen his oxygenator device he has hooked up to the intake. ingenious mod if you ask me. it works similar to a fish tank bubble disk. the more he presses the gas the more oxygen it bubbles into the intake system. takes care of the elevation issue.

Don't think so but I could be wrong. The headlights came from some guy in the states and I think the strut bar came from down there too

just ordered my new rotors and pads last night. got some cross drilled and slotted for about 225 for all four corners. i took jon's advise and got the silver coated ones, i was going to get black. for this price i had to try them. i have heard very good things about this company. i even know a company who is a distributor here in the city.


Brake Kits - Slotted & Cross Drilled Kits

is anyone making a order to OTTP anytime soon? i need some stainless brake lines. blue or silver.

i would call the 1 800 # check into it a lil further. i wouldnt be surprised if they added the lnf. i am sure it wouldnt be much for them to do it. they just need the specs i am sure.

for this price hahaha its worth it. the company that distributes them in calgary puts them on beamers. so i have faith they are quality products.


not to mention that max brakes is a canadian company so shipping was free some how. at least thats what the bill of sale said. however they do charge you in american dollars strangely.
