Will get a video when I can! My wideband sensor crapped out on me so tuning had to stop until I Install the new sensor that just came in. Im going to try to install it soon and I also need to re-gap my spark plugs from the stock .040 to .032 for forced induction. I've been busy with other things going on. I did have time to make a new custom cold air intake that looks alot better than the old one and also installed crankcase breather filters instead of having the hose that ran between them.

I'm going to get it on the dyno soon! I'm interested to see what kind of power it makes. Also traction is a no go down low need to buy some street radials.

Made 483hp on the dyno on 91 octane. Can't use e85 until I upgrade in tank pump. That should put me over 500hp. Also this setup gets hot real quick a larger reservoir is a must. Did a 2nd pull and it was already to hot and pulling timing.

sorry man. Im having some heat issues and my IATs are way too high at WOT. I hit 163 at WOT on a 3rd gear pull and its pulling timing. I bought a bigger heat exchanger and hoping that will fix the issue. If not I'm going to upgrade the reservoir next give it more capacity. went with speed engineering heat exchanger. Great price and should fit with some slight trimming of the grill.

Got the new heat exchanger on. Haven't got to test it because my pump is air locked. I have been trying all day to get it to work to no avail. I have to drive around and let the coolant sink and fill it up and do it all over again until the coolant stops going down. Shouldn't take more than a day or two. Its not perfectly centered but close enough.
