Barry Grant Nitrous-

Nice package for a good price. The throttle cable relocation brackets needed a little grinding to fit. Overall it comes very complete and a good mod in my opinion for someone looking for cheap power. I had a 75 wet on mine and loved it. On street tires the car was running low to mid 13's with a terrible surface on the track.

SLP Mufflers-

No wonder they are discontinued! At 3,000RPM they make a noise that cannot be described but is very annoying. No more to say about these.

X Pipe-

I love my X pipe. The sound is great! I have the stock manifolds, no cats and replaced my resonator with the X pipe. Can't go wrong with this mod. I dunno about power but I like the sound and look from this. The physics for the X pipe adds up, probably adds power. Enough to tell? No not in my opinion.

Fidanza Alum. SM Flywheel-

Don't want to start anything on this thread so I will keep this short and simple. Yes it makes a lot of noise at idle with the clutch out in N. It revs a lot quicker and the noise goes away once in gear. But yes the daily driver will probably want to stay away from this.

Spec Clutch Stage 3 and 4-

Stage 4- Dont make this mistake! If you plan at all on driving your car on the street dont get the stage 4. Its a rigid puck style disc and makes the car virtually non-streetable. The holding power is great though! Lost some money on this having to reorder the stage 3 disc. Although after calling Spec and explaining to them all my trouble and how I have had my clutch out 6 times, they paid for half the clutch disc.

Yes 6 times

Stage 3-

Go with the stage 3+, its full face and a sprung hub. Acts a lot better on the street and a lot less chattering.

CC306-

Too much duration. Even after the tune by Bryan it is still hard to drive. A lot of chugging and terrible gas mileage. Upstairs the thing pulls like a freight train though!

Electric Water Pump-

Wish I would have never made this mistake. Terrible idea. Forget the 5 horsepower and jet the nitrous a little stouter.

Customer service at Meziere is

In Dash touch screen Kenwood Stereo-

Recommend this to everyone. This unit fits in the C4 so good and has all kinds of options. DVD,MP3,CD-R,CD-RW,WAV You name it and it will play it. And the TV tuner is inexpensive so you can check the weather on your way home from work. Really though I love mine.

Well thats about it. I better get back to doing something! Hope to see some people down in Bowling Green this year!

Got any links for the Nitrous and Stereo? Any more info?

 

Here is the nitrous. Like I said easy install good performance mod. Just a little machining on those relocating brackets.

Good to see another KY member on here!

 

i dig the radio and everything else it is.

 

what triggers the nitrous? that's an affordable system.

 

I actually quite enjoy the sound of my SLP mufflers. Although, I did switch to a Dynomax y-pipe with the crossover bar (and had to custom fabricate a set of hanger brackets to get them to fit)....maybe that's the difference in sound.

 

What don't you like about the Meizere wp?

 

well my meziere has caused me a lot of heart ache! the first pump seized up and blew its own fuse a few times and the last time it overheated my car pretty bad. you could hit it with a hammer and get it started and then it would be fine. But thats a lot of work.Ha ha! Then just the overally customer service was terrible. They offered me a t shirt though. You got to give them that much.

Don't get me wrong I like my SLP's but I think I would have liked B&B a little more. Plus they look better. No warranty though through SLP cause they are discontinued.

 

On a stock CI motor that is exactly what I would suspect for the 306. I have told several Poeple who have asked the same thing on a stock ci motor it is a turd down low but will make great #s up top

 

the nitrous is triggered by WOT microswitch on the Throttle Body. Really nice kit, Even better customer service!

 

where do you stash the nitrous bottle?

 

I have a big speaker box in the back of mine so it fits snug right between the box and the 6x9 in the rear. I dont hide it because you have to purge at the line so there really is no hiding that.

 

Sounds like past tense, what happened?

I still have my BG kit and am spraying a 125 shot and lovin' it.

 

I just freshened up my bottom end so I am waiting on the spray. I actually just put my plate back on last night and jetted it for the 125. Can't wait to see how it does! Breaking this thing in is drivin me

 

the ad says "higher powered ignition recomended".did you upgrade yours and if so with what?

 

No I havent upgraded mine but I believe by that they mean the coil. You can get an MSD coil pack for the LTx that is direct replacement. And then again they could be talking about pulling a couple degrees of timing out also for anything above 100 shot. I myself pull 2 degrees per 50 horse shot.
