So after a few issues that lead to the engine comming back apart.
Its all back together and running. Put about 240 miles on it over the weekend. Took a lil to burn all the oil out of the exhaust that was in there. Anyway haven't been able to get a good pull out of the car yet. Still playing with the offset tables. Made huge improvement last night. Got it to rev even faster than the video I posted. All in all I'm very impressed with FIC. Made me a believer.

Nope I have the FIC 2000s.
The 1200s r very nice just not enough for my build.
The way I see it is the 1200s r a must Have for mild tvs builds.
Other wise be a man and get the 2000s.
I'm very amazed with them.
For anyone that needs more than the 1200s I recomend the 2000s. Car runs better than on 80s. I'm sure alan or Steve can get them working even better.

Nothing crazy.

you can throw all the parts you want at it you need to set the suspension up for its intended use. the springs you are running are more for looks then anything the zzp control arms are no better then stock lnf struts work for curves the car actualy needs to be raised up and the car setup for less weight transfer with a better spring rate and shock package to keep the front end planted
you can put thousands of dollars in the suspension but of you don't set it up for the intended usage those parts are no good

Comming from ppl that never built something like this. With the 2.4 pulley on the tvs i see over 24 psi before 3000 rpm. But thanks
And TC shocks and struts r better than the SCs all around.
I'm putting TC springs on this weekend till I get a set of YYZ.
Anything eles cuz I know it will do it again.

From what I have read the H&R's sag and loose spring rate over time and the Zzp control arms no one really like d and went back to stock. Were mostly a looks thing.
Coilovers would be good to adjust height and get the axles level and adjust rebound, but that's a lot of coin. Different springs, playing with the air pressure in the street slicks and rolling into the throttle quickly instead of mashing it will probably help you.
Spinning ain't winning!!

I am not saying anything negative at all. I understand the car hits hard and the torque comes alive quickly. I'm just trying to help you get more traction. What street slicks are you running? I have yet to put my ZZP LCA's in, but I have pedders coilovers set pretty stiff (much stiffer than any spring I've felt, especially in the rear, but still confortable "for me" ) and the front is lower then the rear. 17x9" wheels with 245/40 R888 R compounds on the car. 2nd spins but still pulls forward hard, and 3rd hooks no matter what at around 520whp. Should be turning it up tonight a bit more now that my new pump is in, so I will see how well 3rd holds, but the temp is actually getting warm outside so I shouldn't have much issue.
