Package ordered, now what to expect????
I ordered the D1sc SC w/ 43 lb/hr injectors along with stage II heads and stage III cam from Xtreme motorsports 2 weeks ago. Should be here soon. :yesnod: I am also getting forged pistons. While they are working on it they are going to send my computer to Ed Wright in Tulsa for reprogramming. I plan on running it at around 6 or 7psi???. Anyone have these things already installed and could give me an approx. rwhp and 1/4? Also, w/ the stage III cam over the stage II, will the idle be too rough? One last thing, running on stock tires, am I going to be able hook up at all on the street?? Thanks.

Any suggestions? Larger size or different type? Can you recommend a brand and size that might help hook better? Nitto's?? Or is it futile and I'll just roast whatever is on there? There must be away to hook up, I see these other guys pulling low times w/ big HP. Open for suggestions :confused:

Man, youre pulling our leg right :confused: :D Thats a lot of freakin power youre gonna have. You will be able to improve youre traction problem, I dont think youll be able to eliminate it :nonod: Sorry to have to tell you that, its just a problem all of us with 650 horses have to deal with :lol: If I were you and I was spending all of that money on power, I would minitub the car and put some 345 wide tires back there, youll still smoke em though, but itll be better. :yesnod:

I wouldn't pull your leg :lol: I'll talk to the shop doing the work. See if they recommend the minitub and who they recommend to do it around here. Seems llike the only alternative to carrying extra tires with me :lol: Honestly, not sure what to expect. Half of me is very excited, the other worried I won't be able to drive it around confortably :( We'll have to see in a about a month. Thanks.
