Look What I Got!
My wife called me while I was on my way home from the 
MOD SHOP , and said I would be excited when I got home. Oh yeah, the mod shop. Willyfastz is through w/ the engine detail on my car. It looks kick a**. He and I are going to RPM in Garner NC tomorrow for a tune. These are pics of the CCW DRAG PACK I received today. Will post pics of the engine bay tomorrow. This stuff is great. I get so excited, its a wonder my wife can tolerate it.
PS. It doesn't look like I'll make to Jackson, S.C. this weekend according to the track rules posted on the other thread concerning Carolina Challenge. Shopping for a roll cage now. I'm wondering when the wife is going to start wanting allot of new stuff. I've been racking up lately.

Congrats. Your entusiasm is contageous!
You may know already but, I would start them at 11-12 cold and adjust from there. Also, the first 2 break in passes will not hook like normal. After that, hammer on them!
