I JUST GOT NORRISIZED.....
I just returned from Mike Norris's place with new found torque. Got the 218 cam/heads, Yank 3500 installed. It ain't the same car. Only problem is it did not take the PL program and has the old program and idle/shift points. Sending back to Cole to get it fixed. Only other problem I need to ask Mike about is that it wants to get squirrely and sideways at wot in second :D Could that be because of torque? :crazy: It dynoed at 385.4rwhp and 405rwtq. Not bad for a little ole unassuming A4. Can't wait to get some times on the car. I may have to try it out before I get this PL back. I can now outrun those ricers :jester Thanks Mike Norris :seeya Can tell you this for sure Mike is not even close to anything like that H guy. Mike is a straight shooter and what he says he will do you can take it to the bank. :smash:
BTW, Scullyc5...saw your car there...it was all under wraps and tucked in. I think Mike said he reads her a bedtime story at night....out of Vette Fever.

Duke, I have enjoyed being just the slightest bit quicker than you for the last few months, but I guess you've gone and throw the hammer down, now.
Congrats on the new power. Can't wait to see what your new ET's will be. Gotta know what I'm up against! :D :D

Steve,
All you gotta do is slap on a couple of extra stickers :D Works for the ricers :crazy:
I did notice that you had me by a scooch on the ets....I hope to equal yours now.

Congrats on your new awesome power on the pewter power C5 (my favorite color to). You definitely will see the 11s with that beast and I know how exicted you must be b/c I've been there.
Have fun and be safe. :D
