I know right! Seriously, I got home and had some homework waiting for me to do. I never got back online to post.

However I will say that your car is hot! That is all. lol Seriously nice videos...nice sound. Do you see yourself upping the boost to help reduce your drag times?

as for now, I am keeping it the way it is. Here are my future plans...

1. Upgrade MAF and Return fuel setup...the two things in my way of breaking 400whp on this set up. Then maybe up to 6-8lbs. Right now, I am at 5.5lbs because these two are maxed out at this power level.
2. Build the motor. I would love 500whp and mid 400s wtq. Not going to mess with the body much as I love the car artistically. I am an artist and this car is built beautiful from all angles. Besides, I love sleeper cars!

The good news is that the first 2 items can be had without breaking the bank. Would you had to retune after you had the Maf and curl return installed?

Yes, I would have to retune. At 8psi I was able to go over 415whp like the video in the first post showed, but I was running lean and the MAF was maxed out. If I did get these two, i would be able to turn up the boost but most likely wont go above 6lbs as I dont want too much over 400whp untill I get my block built.

Just a new MAF or a fuel return, alone, will require a full retune. Your tuner is going to shake his head at you for not doing it first
