10th digit of every vin number gives you the model year. 1-9 is 2001-2009 a is 2010 b 2011 and so on. Never go by production dates they can be inaccurate

I think the 6 was just to signify he's an 06 but now has a gen 2 block. And you really could've put the sc on while breaking it in, just would've had to been gentle. And after typing that I realized just how hard that would be to do after just installing the sc

Introducing boost actually helps seal and break in the rings against the cylinder walls.Not full boost but like 5 psi.I broke mine in gradually like that.Helps seat them and pushes them against the walls more to get a better "break in".She runs like a raped ape now!!I don't know if you have ever seen how fast a ape runs after some rapeage but they are fkn super sonic!!!!!!!!!

Well I'm getting impatient I need to go buy hptuners so I can whine. I was going to get it tuned but I got a guy custom grinding cams for me and I could just buy hptuners for the cost of 2 tuning sessions

Extremely hard in my opinion. Specially for a stage 2. Had stage 3 and 4 on my mustang and they were smoother. This one chatters quite a bit in first gear. I haven't got much mileage so I haven't beat on it yet. But all in all it feels like a very strong well built clutch. All will come clear when I boost her in a week or so. Zzp adjustable rod is a must though. I'm ordering mine tomorrow.

Just an update. Clutch is much better. Tune is maybe a week out then once blower is on I'm going right to the dyno. Will post some blower install pics when tune is here. Got my new exhaust yest. Found a place that sells mandrel bent pipe for cat back any size you want. Full 2.5 cost me 120 bucks! Plus I can use whatever muffler I want

8192 is the highest value you can put IN THE RPM CELLS.
Right below it is the secret.
