It takes two minutes to pull the superchips tune out of my car..... so i could be stock again in no time lol. Hell....if you want....... i could let you run it to see how you like it . It peaks at about 22psi. While it's not a bleeding edge tune .... a couple of people have went 13.0's with it.



Does anyone want to get together a but earlier for dinner or something?? OLD folks like me (34) need to eat lol.

It's about cruising and having fun, not how fast you go.

I bet ! Coil overs = go cart Plus 170 hp at the wheels is nothing to sneeze at ..... I bet civic SI's don't know what hit them . You make the same HP and 30 lbs more torque to the wheels lol. They prolly think ur SC'ed or on spray

Whats the gearing like in the 2.4 SS? Is it hard to launch on street tires?

There's a video of me lauching with the 2 step on street tires. Really isn't to bad. As far as SC and spray go I'm putting together a SC kit and seeing as I probably won't be able to finish it I'm going to hook up the new nitrous setup I've had sitting around for over a year now. And yea the coilovers provide for a lot of fun.

I saw another video where you were at the track and with the coil's the weight didn't transfer down on the rear hardly at all ...... thats sweet . How much of a shot are you going to run?

What do you need for the SC setup? Morad and LQK have a bunch of wrecked SS's if you need parts .

http://stores.ebay.com/MORAD-PARTS-COMPANY
http://stores.ebay.com/LKQonline

When i was looking for the link...... i found LQK has a whole set of Recaro's for 399 right now ....front and back lol I know you have them but some others were looking.

I'll bring out the camera for one last taping before it gets retired for it's HD replacement.

I'll be riding with Chris working on his tune and video taping and providing directions and trying to make sure we all stay together. A lot of work for someone who is just a passenger. lol Since I'm riding with Chris, I'll be done for earlier food, we just need to decide on a place and time now, just in case people want to show up earlier!
