Made a quick aluminum bracket to mount the MAC boost solenoid. Love a factory look!

We started it up this past Sunday. Runs terrible with zero remapping done. But I will be bringing it to Admin Tuning in Houston next week for the tune! Trying to get the appointment rescheduled as Moncef can't make our original appointment for Monday, due to personal issues.


We are working on putting the front end back together this weekend. Stopped to take my headlights apart and paint the chrome. Have them back together now and at a shop getting ceramic coated.

Got the headlights back from Cleaner Image freshly ceramic coated. Just have to install them, put the fascia on, and load the Z up tonight.

Leaving for Admin Tuning at 04:00 tomorrow!

If someone can tell me how, I will put the video in a pop up box on the post. I can't figure it out for some reason

Going to need some clutch recommendations as well. The clutch kept letting go while dynoing. We could have made more power as we are on a very conservative tune. Just kept slipping the clutch.

I just sold a SpecialtyZ 6puck clutch kit that would have held it.

Congratulations on the results. I had the Southbend Stage 3 Daily and then the Southbend Stage 3 Drag with upgraded pressure plate. The first Daily slipped past 550whp and the Drag slipped after a few hundred miles at 700whp. I ended up switching to the Clutchmasters FX850 Twin. I've been rebuilding my car for the past few years but it did hold for over a year and a few track events at 700whp. Unfortunately the headstuds didn't hold..
