Just came back from SRT. They are going to be doing some baseline testing of my car next Sat. He said I could use my nitrous to see what that put out as well. I'll video the run and post the results as soon as I can.

Great job buddy, but that would be the A PILLAR man

Before the pictures, I thought to myself: why the heck does this guy want the gauges mounted on the rear of the car? <lol>. Just giving you a hard time, but all in good humor. Have a great weekend.

Just got back from SRT. Dyno pull stock: 242 hp 292 tq. Dyno pull with N20: 322 hp and 419 tq. Mo is looking to have an intake next week that should increase stock about 25-30 hp.

good gawd! Nice numbers!! 420 foot pounds of torque!!daaaayyymn

That was with a 70 shot? I kinda expected the stock SC to have stock wheel hp of around 250. Not suprising since its around 4000lbs.

Cool keep us updated as usual.

I put the 125 shot in awhile ago. N20 really spikes the torque. It was interesting at the shop - I had one tech who loved nitrous and couldnt wait to see the numbers and another who was afraid to be around the test in case the engine blew.

The container from Japan is on its way!!!! The Tom's hood is definitely on it but there are some questions if the Wald wheels made it or not. Does anyone know how long these shipments usually take?

It looks like the guages are on the A pillar. Are you moving those guages to the C pillar?? They look great where they are in the pics. Mine was indigo blue as well, and I LOVE everything about your car!!!! Good luck with the mods!!! Take care.

You're right doc, it is the "A" pillar. I got my "A"s and "C"s mixed up. ELP was kind enough to point that out for me. Sorry for the confusion.

Goodies are piled up in garage. Wald Striefen wheels came in as well as the FIRST Toms carbon fiber hood (so I'm told, lol). Photos to come soon.
