Yes this FI hoopla seems to be all its cracked up to be, as u know how long it took me to get my stuff from OFI... ill never go back to spray again so far when is the projected date?

Yeah, the show is going to be very laid back. Just come park your car in the lot and you can have it dyno'd.

The projected date was early April. As you know that came and went but I am hoping for mid July now. I never should have went this route! I should've just kept the car sprayed and bought a 03 -04 Cobra. It would have been cheaper and I would have had 2 cars! I still hope to be there though! How is the OFI kit going for ya?

To be quite honest? there is not a day goes by that i dont want to drive to ohio and throttle that guy...

Im pretty anal about the functionality of the car and the cooling issues im having is driving me nuts. This kit totali negates any of the factory cooling components so im having to redesign a whole cowling system etc... everything i do makes it better and stays cooler longer, but the slow speed diving she gets up around 200 and doesnt want to come down the easiest yet... So that tells me i have a air flow issue yet... I need to realize i now have the headers under hood, not under the car with a turbo thats hotter than the blazes sitting right behind the rad... its gonna be tough to cool.

The kit seems to be working OK now that little gremlins are setteling out and im working off a peak 7 psi right now just tyring to get a handle on how to tune it.

i havent been able to work on the tune yet as i have to worry about if im getting the thing hot at all when i beat on it... But really moves good so far.

[ProjectCamaro]

If it's giving you that many problems I'll just take it off your hands.

[lilws6]

Tom,
Let me know when you plan on taking the car to the track. I'd be more than happy to bring the digital SLR camera and my camcorder to tape your runs for you.

This FI shit sucks. I can't believe you are having issues too. I thought it would have been just my bad luck but it seems it happens a lot. My issue is boost creep right now and we have been testing it so much the car went through a set of MT drag radials and I need to buy another set ! This is getting way to expensive now. Already bought bogarts and 325's for racing now I need 275's again for tuning still! Not sure how high the creep is going though. The street tune target psi is 14 but the race is 24psi so it is getting dangerous. We'll see though. Anyone wanna buy a car???

They shouldn't have problems with your car. I mean they are charging you tons and they've done the turbo install tons. I don't understand why they don't have it down yet.

[HAMRHEAD]

My thoughts exactly! Even Larry can't figure out why. I knew I should have been happy with what I had

Yeah but a twin turbo build is hard to say no to.

What did the car have done before hand?

[lilws6]

yea yea i thought my clutch was going way back then and i haven't done anything about it lol the clutch got ordered a few days after i came back home.

It was just a head and cammed set up with a forged LS6 in it with a 200 shot. Fast enough but wanted to not have to worry about filling up the bottle all the time. Plus I wanted to be more unique. Well, it's unique alright. It won't run right! Granted all the testing and refab work is on Speeds dime now but the summer will be over before I get my car

You and me think the same lol

Ive gotta forged 347... 200 shot direct port last year... now wanted to go turbo since no bottles to fill and its diff

[HAMRHEAD]

Yep we do! Do you ever think it would have been easier to just enjoy what you had too?
