Did my first test drive with the new setup on the rear and man this gave the car a different personality I didn’t know it had! I almost hook in first gear maybe the tires need to warm up some more but man all other gears hooks and books! I like this new found traction. I’m curious to see how well my times would be 60-130 and 0-60

I've been procrastinating on if I need BMR suspension or not. Zach from Katech recommended me to do these upgrades to increase the driving dynamics of the car so I decided to jump ahead and get it. Caught a coupon code to get 10% off parts so why not. (Not sure why the pic is sideways but you get the idea)
Upgrading the upper and lower trailing arms, control arms and cradle lockout. I was encourage to get lowering springs but I'll do that down the road. Arizona has too many dips for me I be cautious on bottoming out.

Finally got a chance to weigh my car today at a Cat Scale. I was also curious how much my car sits without me in.
So far when I weighed it: It had about 10lbs of misc. stuff but besides that the car was majority empty inside with a quarter tank, no passenger or rear seats with 19in apex wheels weighing about 51lbs each. Very pleased with it. I am v6 1LE damn near. so I am sitting at 3550

I just the 1/2 mile airstrip last weekend and it was fun! I learned a lot about my car and how well it’s setup. My car did 150.8 on street tires. The car could easily do 151/2 if I didn’t spin in first and partial second gear. Any way based on how my car was running I was hanging with C8’s. So I feel good how it stacked up.

Well the time has come that I will finally switch over from the LT2 to the MSD and Soler Performance 103 TB. For a few reasons, I am getting tired of the eye sore of the LT2 every time I pop the hood and I'm getting tired of cleaning it, The second reason is maximizing the potential of my setup which allows me to run a bigger throttle body for heads and cam. And third, the price($800 was a no brainer since the car it was previously on got shipped to GPI and going high ram and SS4. At the end of the day The LT2 is no slouch and I would recommend it since showed gains as you can see above at a 1/2 mile and dyne numbers. Just tired of the nuisance as mentioned above and just want a clean look.

It's most definitely is. LT2 was good while it lasted but for M6 cars we need all the top end we can get. I believe the A10 can utilize the LT2 better.

Finally got the MSD/103 installed and the car sounds wayy better with this setup than the LT2 and stock ported tb! I can definitely tell and feel the car is getting more air now!

Scored a deal on a Anderson Composite T2 Hood! I wasnt expecting to get a hood but it was too hard to pass up and luckily for the owner he was able to get his Copo hood for his Hi Ram. WIN WIN for both of us. The Carbon Fiber looks so good on this color along with the rainbow clear coat on top of it. Next step is PPF or probably wrap it! I havent decided yet which route im going to go. Definitely will get the trunk to match in the future.
