That raccoon STILL has gotten the better of you?!?!?! That happened like 2 months ago didn't it? Lol. In a month, I think my buddy should have his 700whp Firebird moving again (took it to be dyno tuned, and the 8rib Procharger belt turned itself into a 6rib, and the tranny took a crap).

OCG, Where did you find a place to make a CF setup? $1100 is about was I was expecting to see for that. Do they need the car? Or just the joints?

Yeah my front end is still a mess. I was out of the country for almost a month. Now I'm waiting for the Impul style front end from Eric. Should be back together in a couple weeks.

I have nothing against the Kinetix V+. However, personally, I would just go with a MD 5/16" ISO-thermal spacer... search that in the forum, you can't really go wrong with the quality of the MD product.

Other than that, you really need a tune (I don't think reflash is flexible enough for your applicatio) after all your mods.

what kind of ET's are heavily moded n/a G's running (5AT/6MT) ?

I'm afraid to buy any more mods that will work against each other. I want to do some exhaust work but I don't want my car too loud, and I have read where guys loose power on some parts.

Yea get a tune, my best and only time at the track was 14.3@99 with a 2.7 60 ft With some decent tires and a tune i should be in the mid to low 13's n/a. But i dont think ill run my car N/a anytime soon.

Look into a flywheel/Clutch also if your 6mt.

I'm taking it to Firebird tonight to see how things have improved... It definitly "feels" faster than before. (Although, not running the AC before the run because it's 110 degrees out helps!)

I figure the track temp should be about 70-75 degrees, so that will help significantly.
