WOW Mike, can't wait to see what gains you get from those mods. Also you vs Vlad on the track at the next Street Legals will be fun to watch!

Mike.

I may be able to make it out for that. I would need to see if I could crash at someone's house Friday and Saturday nights and get the time off work but it might happen.


In fact, if I am going to be out there, I want to do a photoshoot one day too. Hmmmmm

If he choose the right cams, it will probably be a lot more than 15whp. The issue might be his lowend power which is almost always compromised when you add the typical aftermarket cams. Your best bet will be to run him from a stop. In a roll race, it might not be pretty, especially if he's choosen to go with some deep breathing cams that allow the motor to breath into the 7500rpm range.

Nice Mike. You're going to have a pretty damn quick G35.

I will have to get a few races going on against you at our next event. I'm curious to see how much of a difference an almost full NA + tuned revup does against a full NA + tune + cammed non-revup.

I think with the headers and cams you will be over or close to 300 for sure on shawn's dyno your already at 270-275.

PM me how much for the headers.
That’s what I’m hoping secretly... (well not anymore) I’m hoping for 30 hp similar trq… we'll see. Even if that's close, the cost/benefit is kooky… but gotta do watcha gotta do to be fastest NA AT sedan (I think I already am though)... who knows, this could be a complete BUST???!!!

Hmmmm - I wish I could use your mention. But since you havent seen these welds I guess neither of us have a point.

pulling the entire motor. Lots of things happening.

I wasn't trying to imply anything Mike. It's just that in our oh-so many trips to the drag strip, I don't think I've ever ran against you.

You and Wally were pretty neck to neck back then. I've only had a chance to see Wally's tailights during past events...all the time

Henry, Henry, Henry... I'll let Vlad or Wally post up...

Wally did catch me towards the end of his run when he still had the car - we were close at Irwindale... but there has never been a close race together in a 1/4 mile.

Vlad was the only one other than me earlier this year with a 14.1+ but that was against Alan... against me he had his usual "miss-shift"

I luv ya bro... but between me, Vlad, and Wally, you know you haven’t run to call me out.

Vlad has a fast car - he and I know it... we are close as is... we respect each others proven times against each other and shared time slips...

We welcome you - and you know I've been encouraging you! But don’t call me out without warrant.

Do you think you would have run better than Wally or Vald against me?

You must be reading something im not, because I've never called you out. Not sure how you're interpreting my posts, but there's no underlying meaning to them.
