Well you know what worked before so I think you will see great increases over last year if that is the case. Can't wait to see it run again this year. I haven't had a chance to test out the intercooler yet this year either. Having spark plug wire issues so I am waiting on those to come. But I'm looking forward to the challenge of keeping up with you this year .

We'll see, Jared, we'll see.

54 has great meaning to me........the year I was born and my age :P

What is the significance in your name jshelton54 :?:


.054 sec slower than me.

Glad you haven't stooped to using Nitrous for that unfair Dirty advantage.

Seriously though, I like what you have done with your car and am looking forward to the competition.............and help with tuning mine.


I ordered a new solenoid check valve. Should have it by next week. Spoke with the Snow Performance techy who says I should flush and purge my system on the off season to prevent corrosion......now they tell me. They are also using a different brand of solenoid check valve now, so I get the upgrade. He also recommended injecting pre SC for better distribution.

Pre-SC should be great. I've done that all along for that same reason. It'* too hard to get even distribution the closer you inject to heads.

Now the challenge is on.

54 has always been my sports number. It has a special place with me since we won two state football championships while I was a starter. Always been my lucky number I guess. Every little good luck thing that has happened has some how been associated with 54 for some reason. I don't know .

I dont know Paul special Voodoo magic 54 stuff going on here
I'll have to share a bottle of Patron with you the night before to help break it

Are you spraying to the bottom of the rotors or to the middle?

Ya, I'll have to go with max timing and boost......and Patron to beat that spell.......maybe I'll try spraying some Patron in there too.

Yes my pre-rotor spray is still more efficient than yours . I'm glad JShelton54 hasn't stooped to using any unfair Dirty sprays like WE have
.More efficient at making power, yes, and expensive. The difference is yours adds power and mine just allows me to add power by allowing more boost and timing. Not to mention mine is legal to use on the road. No different in functionality than an intercooler, which is what it is intended to replace.
