Default New Addition!

IN an attempt to get my engine to breath better I purchased a TPIS forced air box. Its a pretty nice looking piece. I will have to post some pictures as soon as its mounted.

For those of you going to the corvette challenge, I WILL be there this time! Come hell or high water!

Talk to you all later!

:cheers:

Track was cancelled both Saturday at NJ and then Pittsburgh on Sunday :cry

This weekend I have my other 2 kids, so I am planning on celebrating Easter with them, therefore no track times :cry

Then the following weekend (easter weekend) I am heading out to St Loius to attend my brothers graduation from Med School, so another weekend without track times.

This is KILLING me :banghead:

I have no doubt the car will be in the mid to low 11's unless I am all wet, but comparing power to my 350 is not even a comparison. My 350 wouldn't even spin the slicks on dry pavement, but this thing can lay a patch of rubber 30ft plus at 60% throttle, with the same gears 3.07.

If its not down there I will be VERY surprised. I may sneek to a track on a week night, who knows.

:cheers:
