No worries man, we are all still learning, or at least we should be!

Regardless you should have a lot of fun. Stick with 2 nozzles on the Meth(honestly never heard of anybody running 3), and look into the weapon x triple heat exchanger upgrade for your cooling. The CTSV V3 guys are having great luck with those.

Hey, don't ruin my fun!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha. jk.


I have the Weapon X already, but that's been sold to Joel and I know I don't need 3 nozzles, but we doing it anyways. And yes, we know 2 is enough, but Matt was like screw it, lets add a 3rd and we do plan on running a bottle here after we get this set up dialed in.



I know the guys Aldo runs with and I know I'm not in those guys leagues. He's usually with the 1000 hp min guys. We'll see if my build gets to that point. It should, but we'll see. There's a 1600 Hp Vette up at Matt's shop and I'm like, that is completely asinine to do that much power, but now I see how this gets addicting.

I'm just going to place my bets now that if you keep this thing you're going to end up going LSX iron block or sleeved boost engine from TSP and running a massive blower or TTs and make 1500+.

We will see what the final HP numbers are and then get it to the track for an official time slip.

The next 3 weeks are going to be hell waiting for the install, but I can handle it knowing what's at the end of the tunnel.

Ricco, the heat exchangers went with the setup. Not sure what the plans are for cooling on this build, but judging by all the cooling upgrades with this setup there will be no expense spared to keep the Procharger cool.

There shouldn't be too much of a heat issue with the Pro Charger. Matt says it usually runs about 30 degrees cooler on the IAT's than a top mount so. Just that alone should let me dial this up.



You'll notice once you have my setup on your car, once the temps drop down to 70-80 degrees, it's gonna run like scolded dog. That's kind of why I wanted you to run some meth at it, just to cool those IAT's down a tick. Esp during the summer, but I spent nearly $4k trying to keep it cool for my summer runs and it still pulled timing (but that was due to overspinning the blower, which is why we were going to go back to a stock lower pulley) which is why I ordered the ice tank. Which, you now benefit from. haha.



Btw, we are planning a track rental as soon as temps drop so I'll let our FB group know. Matt will put it on for us.

Well, if Matt is correct he mentioned some shit about a 416 with all internals that should hold around 1400. Which he said could be done for around $8k so. You already know me. I have no idea in which way I'm going until that day comes.


I'm going to have to buy a freaking Toyota or something as a daily if I keep this up. I almost can't stand the cam right now, but I'm living with it. Just got to get used to it.

Now I get to go with the F1A-94. Can't wait!!!!!!!



Sorian has ordered the race kit, whatever that means.



I'll post up numbers once build is done. Should take a month.

Congrats, Ive got mine ready to go on as soon as I get it back from the roll bar shop. Keep us updated with your build, What did it run in the 1/4 at 800whp?

Whats up with the cam? Why dont you like it?

This is my daily.. I freaking love this little car.

Eh, it's just the cam obviously doesn't make it run like stock. It's not that I don't like it, it does take some getting used to it especially when you roll to a stop and are stopped. Tends to want to lunge a bit. We have idle set at 850. As mentioned, to the real race guys, they are prob like, dude, this isn't nothing. haha. Get over it.



Yea, I'm gonna hve to start looking for a 2nd car here soon. Unfortunately, that car you have would not do. Looks fun, but I'd prob go more C63 AMG or M3 or M4. My wife has the C63 AMG, so I prob won't go that route. Maybe a Maserati lease? Who knows. I know soon I won't want to daily this thing. But then, maybe I will. If Nissan would ever get their golden rods out of their asses and lower the price on the GTR, I'd have one right now.

Never been to a track a day in my life. EVER. So, once temps drop, we are going to head out with our FB group on a rental to see what we can pull off. I won't be driving it, so it will have a driver mod for sure. I don't want to build a 1100 hp beast, then only rip off a 10 sec 1/4. haha.



I'm sure I'll do a few runs, but I'm only going to post up what it runs with driver mod. Sorry.



I know I know. How hard can it be since it's an Auto. I'll get flamed, don't really care.



But, I'm hoping to get low to mid 9's I'd imagine. I think I have a mid 9 sec car now, but not in these temps.

Interesting.. I need to get a ride in your car to check it out before I decide on doing mine

U gonna need to do a cam for fueling purposes if you continue to build. I went with the Stage 2 Cam Motion. It's not a heavy lope, but I needed something in the middle so. I'm prob making it sound worse than what it really is. haha.



You add Drag Radials to it and it throws off the TC and makes it lunge even more. So, nannies off at all times.

You gonna be at Matt's shop tomorrow? I should be picking mine up about 5ish.

I won't be doing drag radials but I will likely go to Nitto NT01's.

Go with the R888R. About the same or better handling performance but they "hook" better, nearly as good as most drag radials. I just ordered them for my 2nd gen Camaro and they'll go on my ZL1 when I change wheels.
