Haven't seen too many NA cars gaining the so call 15-30 rwhp that people are claiming. I'm sure it's better for the engine overall especially for boosted cars but as far as a performance gainer not so much. At least for the NA cars.

And Steve I don't think you have the right to talk shit until you learn how to drive your car for obvious reasons and when or if you ever beat Nic.

I slapped the MT's back on today, so I'm ready for a trip to Crandall when you guys are ready. I'll be pretty busy next weekend, but we ought to try the next assuming Crandall will be open. Definitely 1/4 mile though!

You know, we might be the slowest, maybe not. But one thing is for sure we are having fun with our cars rather than sitting at home talking shit doing nothing. I'm enjoying my lil rivalry with Nick, it's all in good fun. Keep stroking yourself thinking about how fast your car really isn't. I'd be afraid to run your car too at this point after dropping all that money only to find out it's no faster than your typical bolt on Coyote. lol

After the dyno day I learned that Jeff knows about two things, bullshitting and dicks. lol

Blah blah blah. Go ask Daddy to buy you some more parts.
