Seeing as though you have a whipple make sure you relocate the IAT sensor as close to the intake manifold as possible. Last I checked they left it in the MAF for some dumbass reason.

One last shot - You take an empty 2 liter bottle, put the cap on it and place it in the freezer. What happens to it? - It deflates because the air is more dense at cooler temps BUT there are the same amount of air molecules inside. The opposite is also true - you could heat that bottle up and it would become pressurized and bulge out BUT there are still the same amount of air molecules inside the bottle.
100% correct assuming of coarse the 2 liter bottle was not made of metal, carbon fiber etc. You did not specify a plastic 2 liter soda bottle, lol j/k. :nunchuk1:

If you open up that 2 little bottle that was heated and is bulging it will release more or its air than the colder bottle even though they both have the same amount of air inside. see my point. I digress now.

I will. I already had it relocated to the piece the has the two aux injectors on it, but since I don't think we will be using that piece anymore they're gonna put it back in a similar location.

What times are you running with your truck?

and if you open the bottle in the freezer it will suck air in.
is it not funny how tempture determins volume of air moved.
but of course if you wish to weigh it please do so in a liquid form.

the best way to prove this is to use a balloon.
blow one up to the size of 6" it will not matter in the freezer or over boiling water, what is inside will be the same amount of air hot or cold.
but witch one will fit inside an engine cylinder?
the balloon heated, or the balloon frozen.
how many will fit of each type.
will it be more heated or more frozen.

What times are you running with your truck?
I dont know? Ran a best of 13.1 at 102 about 2 years ago( Mind you this truck tips the scales at 6200 minus me). Since then I have added allot but havent been back to the track. I hope to make it this year, its all about priorities and the strip isnt very high on my list. I actually kinda got burnt out on it last year with the stuff I did with it and just kinda started driving it this past week. Its not my DD so somtimes I just park it for awhile when I get tired of messing with it.
