Optic, just got over round one, how bout round two?
Hey man how ya been. Your buddy Martin said they are going to be having a dyno day somewhere up there soon. I was going to try to attend. He made it sound like it was mainly for vipers but told me to bring my friends renntech so I assume anyone can come.
I haven't been on the board in a while so I thought I would come over and see what you guys were up to. I have pretty much left the car alone since our last outing. I think I'm going to supercharge the viper but I'll be damned if I pay 30k+ for 150hp so I am waiting for a DIY kit to come out. There are a couple of companies that should be ready with their kits in a couple of months that are aiming at around $6500 for 100-150rwhp. Blower with a small shot should be good for 675-725rwhp (not bad for about 8k).
Maybe we can go out on the highway (don't preach to me I don't want to hear it) and do some rolling starts so I can try to regain my composure :lol: :lol: :lol: before I turn the car into a beast. Also see if Martin would like to come hang out. I would love to see where I stand against a 650R pre-supercharger. He sounds like a pretty cool guy.
BTW quit picking on those poor little 996 twin turbos! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yea Optic, when you going to take that slow asp sled to the track? :D I see you over at the Viper board taunting all of us :eek: must have something up his sleeve :yesnod:

I second that :smash: I'm also to waiting for a supercharger DIY kit to come out. How about that twin turbo kit? :eek: I think I'm going to go for the TT if it looks reliable, more potential than a supercharger :cheers:

Give me a buzz and we will hook up 404-739-7106, talk with ya soon. :cheers: :cheers:
