Thanks! I'm probably done for now, except a reflash to bring it all together. Of course, I say that now. FI would sure be wicked but I'll probably wait a while on that. I'm enjoying it the way it is.

I think once you add exhaust to pelunum and intake you definitely need a re-flash. AF ratios are probably off enough to justify it. Plus, you want a raise the RPM max for cutoff. It all works together.

The Stillen is still my #1 CAI choice. Great looks, sound and a few HP too!

Yes, the sound is awesome. I like it just for that. At full throttle it makes this crazy throbbing howling sound! I'm killing my gas mileage but I could really give a damn at this point. LOL!

Go to the drag strip. THEN you will know. My bet is it makes your car slower.

Hey Nismo,

Lets go to Moroso together!

I will bring the C6 since my G will only run 14.3.

Ment to say, that it wont make your car slower......just for clarification if you thought i was bashing what you said. The track will prove it though!

I'd be VERY surprised. But I'll never know because it will never go to the drag strip. It's not built for that. However, my time from one end of my favorite canyon to the other end has vastly improved. But the suspension upgrades probably have more to do with that than a new air filter.

I have a stripped down '65 Comet for the drag strip. It goes straight real well.

I don't know what the G will run. I have no intention to find out but maybe someday. I just love the way the car drives in the twisties.

It's a consistent mid 11 second car although 10.89 was accomplished last Spring. I was among the first to run time trials on a cold, dry morning with a fresh track. I have not been able to get it below 11 but that 1 time. It's a 427crate motor, moderately built to handle dual Carter AFBs and NOS foggers on a tunnel ram.
