Its a definite buy. Fairly cheap and easy way to gain 10hp.

Its no rocket pack but its good for about 1 mph in the 1/4.

I forgot to mention that yesterday I was tagging the rev limiter (6700rpms indicated) in 3rd gear right before the finish line. I've never done that before. Prior to yesterday, I always tagged the limiter just after the finish. Hopefully Boss will post up and let me know what he does since his 5AT is trapping 101mph.

"Gutting" the power duct has no impact at all on performance but it does give the engine a beautiful roar. I tested it back to back at the track, no difference in MPH although I got my best ET with no power duct. No difference in 60 foot times either.

Hey, the Boss is trapping almost 103...lol

I actually came on here b/c I needed to look something up...but had to come to the drag section...of course...and now I have been on here for 25 mins...lol...

So, nice times...number 1...and like BobbyD...the ultimate 13 sec man in stock form...said...MPH is indicative of RWHP and you are making enough now to get you to a 14.1 or 14.0 on a great DA day Davey Boy!

I trap what I trap b/c I never shift into 4th...no matter what...and that takes *****...maybe stupidity lol...in this car some times...but the AA Tune I got makes it possible...as does the TS tune...b/c, in manual mode, you get an extra 200 or so rpms in each gear...otherwise you have to shift into 4th.

That is why the dude in FL didn't beat my time or MPH...if he was not shifting into 4th he most certainly would have run a 13.7 IMHO...he may not have trapped as high as me, but he woudl have got there quicker. I noticed his 1/8 mi mph were a c-hair higher than mine on his first run too.

Course, I got thrown out of the track after one run b/c I didn't bring my helmet on purpose to shove it up murphy's law's *** that night if you remember...so who knows, I may have done better myself after one run.

Keep up the good fight.

Snowmobiling season is 4 days away for me so I will be in G35 hibernation mode for 4 months!

Dave

Are you waiting, for the Cobb setup?

That will be next on my list if they set it up right.
That company is very close to me, and the guys that work there seem to understand that is needed.

Fingers crossed. Dennis
