Cool man. Again, probably spring anyway. Basically I want to have everything pieced together, then start on a Saturday morning. Do all the install as long as I need to on Saturday. Then Saturday night / early Sunday get the tuning just right..

yeah, the one IU built was bigger then anything on the market, but I did fluid analysis and such on it so that it owuldnt slow the fluid down. using baffles and such in the tanks.

Cruising my iat1 to iat2 was about 7 degrees and at WOT i never went over 130 degrees even when I did multiple runs to 130 or 140 mph. Plus heat soak while stopped was basically not there, once you started moving the temps dropped right back down.

No... but if it's the kid I'm thinking it is, he's a douche puddle. He used to hang out in Monroeville and did that paint job himself. Up close it looks like ****. I could've rattle canned a better job than that.

Haha.. wonder what those Aussie Built GM's were

Brian What was it at the end of the night that trapped 202... I heard the announcer repeating it as I was airing up the rears.

I think it may have been a bike

Most likely is was one of the rail cars...

There was 1 that ran a 6.92 @ 196, so I'm guessing he was the one who did. No one else came close.

BTW... my buddy's Camaro ran a 11.38 @ 120 on just the 1st stage ( 100 shot ) of NOS... only activates on WOT... stage 2 is push button.

Sounds like he's planning on running it tonight... upping the 1st stage to 150HP and feels that he WILL be in the 10s...

Heading to Linkin Park show tonight... and now working all f-n weekend...

Soo, would anyone be willing to help me with a full exhaust install..? I bought into the Clear Image Automotive Exhaust GP and I should get everything within a few weeks at most. I have a garage and tools, but no lift or anything to make it easy. I would be extremely appreciative if I could potentially get some help or anything. I would be willing to come to you or meet somewhere. I can provide beer if wanted. Thanks guys...

No lift needed. Jack stands are helpful, but definitely no lift needed. Something to cut through metal efficiently is a must though.

You can definately put a catback on with no lift I just did it last week.

I'm willing to help you out with your install. I have all the tools we would need. I don't have a lift but I have a jack and jack stands. Let me know...

I can see why you're so excited - that is an AWESOME project car period, but for a first project car, you've got to be downright giddy!!!!!

I don't know how you're keeping yourself from working on it now.
