Lets just say he doesnt post 0-?? videos... because well S1X cam, 3.29'*, 3000 stall, Gen V with a 3.4.... Yea, on the speedo 0-50 is a blink of the eyes cause his tires are crying lol. J/P. He car hauls

Lets say, i can garantuee a 13 second pass the way his car was and it was running maybe 75% of its potential. So it is easily mid 13'* if not even a little quicker.

Bill you are easily mid 13'* when you get everything going good. I would put you 7th in the top 25 if you can get things figured out and get to the track again. I would put you right between these 2 guys in the top 25. I am going to say 13.46@ 100.2

My estimate of Boosty'* potential based on his current mods is a #5 spot if he gets a proper tune and sorts out all the details is 13.2 @ 105 mph.

Then again, when I get a proper tune, I should be nipping at his heels......with a stock cam. Lets not forget that I have the quickest stock cammed Gen5 Bonne on the list.....so far.
Even if my top end sucks.
Remember, last year with the Gen3 I was posting 13.5 @ 103 mph.

For now I enjoying and gloating about the #7 spot. :P

Haha..Ok guys.. let'* get back in performance mode here.

Last night was exhaust and almost wheel studs. As of tomorrow the rest of the studs will be waiting for me along with the struts, power steering hose, ball joint, plug wires (Pete) and I think that'* it.

The safetly stuff will have priority to my heading to the track. I will make at least one more run. I've started tuning and have the new injectors in place. All the tables in my pcm are begging for attention and I'm taking it one step at a time to get it as close to right as I can.

Speaking of..I corrected my injectors (I had them a bit rich) and double checked a couple other tables. VE being one and I found that my stock PCM had the same table as all the others I have. Which is odd....there is a different table out there, maybe it'* because I'm not on the most current OSID.

I'm off to bed in preparation for a motor swap this weekend and I'll be planning on getting some things done on my car as well.

PS. With the larger injectors a smaller pulley found it'* way onto the snout.
If you have a snout turn down tool...please pm me.

God i hope not lol a 2.8 not intercooled.... I am thinking probably a 3.25, if i had to guess.


Yea, after the motor swap, i would like to put some time into your car also. I really want to see some track runs this season (atleast 2 outings).

All good info about the changes you are making.

Well that would explain what I felt in your steering wheel around corners. You should consider an alignment too, while you are doing the rest of it.

No, 3.2" and so far the first gentle cruise, things look good on the aeroforce. I didn't have the time to get any scans, therefore I'm staying out of boost until it learns a bit and I can get a few real scans and start dialing in the tables.

The turn down tool is proactive for the other four pullies that are in the trunk, an intercooler and much tuning.

Last night was interesting. Planned on tuning and shipping packages to unsuspecting members. And most of my parts had been waiting since Thurs.

Got wheel studs in one side of the car. Other hub had been replaced and they are a different size yay..I can put one slick on the car.

New ball joint is on, new caliper is on. Power steering hose didn't make it on as it'* not a defective exhange part. It'* nice when the place won't make you pay for the parts to refund you an hour later upon return of the old parts. They go out the door stickered as returned and are returned about an hour later.

Struts are waiting for Dan.. (power steering hose too ...I think) Then off for an alignment (first since January).

Tonight is scheduled for tuning.
