Dyno before and after my PPE long tubes and flywheel + retune.... Click the picture and go to the webshots page, than click the magnifying glass to open it up.. than click the picture to zoom in to full size.. You can see it was very rich when I brought it in ( prob why i was shooting flames since last winter ) so the top black a/f line gets int he way of the tq but you can see it went from 310 to 330 whp and 234 to 242 tq ... I asked for a / f measure on the side but for the final print out we forgot to switch it back to HP so show gains a little better but you can get the picture... nice solid gains...

jnaut I wish a 1.6 but for some reason I am the worlds worst at doing burnouts.. I test fit them today and the brakes are so touchy to me and I constantly brake too hard causing me to do a crap burn out... i cant get these things spinning for long at all... and I dont want to keep burning my tires and clutch up , lmao... I have a few days to get it down though, lol... this poor car...
the tires and wheels fit great though and def hook 100000x better than these hankooks even with the 35psi in them today and no burnouts so Im sure they will be a huge help... but this first time out, I will only get 3-4 runs and there will prob be a learning curve but I should def get atleast a 1.8x or better.. but I will be right back either at atco or island dragway where I hear its less crowded and you get more passes asap... not setting up excuses just want to set my standards a little low to start , lol... but I would be very mad not to see a 12.7 or better.. ** I also got my rim repaired from Al's Hubcaps the following day after the mishap... so that is behind me !! **

got the burnout down, just wasnt dumping high enough...
Also yesterday had the oppurtunity to take some pics and drive a audi r8... V8 version but still a joy of a car... Would love to own one of these ... the attention it draws in my area and prob all areas is a bit much though...

Excuses excuses! Just race already! :P
On the brightside the heat should make the track sticky.
