Hey anytime you beat this guy, you've done somethin right.. .cause of the long list of his victims.... I just wanna know when he is gonna be a Novi 200 brother, I will give him lots more convincing, (if you
know what I mean). There is still a long list of stuff I am gonna do to
get in the 9's with a stick. Besides, its all Funcool's fault that I have done all these mods...all I did was listen to him and bought a "NOVI".

He needs your help. Too many 700+rwhp cars on the prowl around here.

And congrats to Vinnie! Alway's told you just need to get it set up right.
Funcool just needs to take a day off and re-evaluate.

If he decides to stay loyal to maggie, they should give him a tvs 2300 or better for free, with all he has done to promote their stuff.

My stuff is yet to be tested at the higher power levels, so potential restrictions may still exist.

I am still hovering around 600/600 and hoping my stock bottom end, etc can handle that.

Also, aren't the bigger novis (2000/2200) rated at 1500 cfm or better?

The 3.3L is rated just over that....but then again I am sure that Funcool knows about overspinning...

Is today a day of mourning for Funcool??

Hey I was gonna do Funcool's same set up myself this past winter, but ECS really really gave me a great deal, (thanks Chris, and Doug of ECS) I ended up selling the maggie I purchased from a fellow forum member. Funcool's set up can be put together very easily, and the ECS Kit is just as easy, but compared to turbos, the down time to build, there really is no comparison, and funcool has made some turbo guys look bad....but hey, maybe they just cant
drive he can spray that kit of his and really feed it to some
of our buds, and really have them scratchin their heads
He can still do some mods if he cared, different rear pulleys (another 4 lbs. of boost, the bigger unit, different cam, and or check the tuning).
Funcool can step it up easily and get in the 9's if he didnt care about breaking, I dont think he needs to change his pulley, he just needs some different victims now.

Wow Vince ! It really sounds like you feel bad for funcool ??? I guess we can expect that you won't make him beg like some pesant for a rematch ? I think you made the right decision going with the Novi .. I told funcool the car pulled hard when I drove it with you testing the clutch out. Congrats on the redemtpion vinny

I agree. FunCool will be the first to admit he lost. Most other will make all kinds of excuses. And as for Vinnie I would like him to run a couple of real TT vettes for comparison.

Hey Vinnie when are we going to see you run Paulo? As for turbo install down time the kits will take less than a week for any competent mech to install. 24 hrs for a pro.
