Well...It's finally "complete". It still needs some fine tuning and I'm still playing around to see which spark plugs go along better with the system. I haven't unleashed its full potential because I am currently just about clutchless... Can barely get my gears in at low RPM's and I still need that to last at least 3-4 more weeks untill I get my new Spec stg 3 clutch and Fidanza FW. So far I got 232 at 7psi and 14.5 at the track at 99.98 mph. But that was being very conservative on the launch so...We'll see once it's completely tuned and clucth is in.

Anyways, here's a tease...Go to the Cardomain page to see the rest of the pics. (Sorry I'm lazy) ;-)

i was looking at your et slip. wtf were you racing that only had a 52.81 trap speed?
LOL...Actually, that was a very nice Honda s2000 that was doing around 12.4 but he let of the gas and actually stepped on the breaks half way thru...not sure why. I was really racing him...that was actually my very first pass. My clutch went out after that.
