By the way, great numbers Shawn! I'm sure its a blast to drive!

Do you think the methanol is helping the numbers quite a bit?

Just because its not in the area doesn't mean we can't tune em. The Meth did allow for 2 degrees of timing which was worth a couple of ponies.

Yes the kit is a MAF based system. It is a custom system just for this car.

I am impressed with the torque the Marcella made in the lower RPM range.

Oh my, that thing sounds crazy. Gotta love big cam/high compression combos.

We will have the car back in my hands in a few weeksand we can put a Fast 102 on it and see what the difference is. I am sure that the Marcella intake is worth a good bit.

As I have stated before this cam is big, but it did drive better than I thought it would. When I say big it is upwards of 40+degrees of overlap. It does get some attention at street lights though



Meth was not a need, It was being used to cool off the intake and the Iat's. We are using just enough of what is needed for the car at that point. Just incase you were wondering Abient temps when dynoing were 68 degrees and the Meth was dropping the IAT's to 43degrees.
I can see the merit of Meth in this application, but realistically why not just throw a 100 shot on it and call it a day? That would lower IAT's a lot! lol....

Can I bother you some more and ask you for a brand or link to it. I'd like to read up on what it is for... Does it serve the same purpose as those ht use a vacuum pimp for their cranks?

Its a jegs brand and its just to help relieve any crank case psi.. a vacuum pump does just as the name describes and keeps a vacuum on the engine.. a vacuum pump will actually create horse power by keeping windage down in the oil pan..

Can you give us an idea of what something like this costs?
