I got part throttle, and a little bit of WOT tuning done tonight.. No timing added yet, still need to re-install meth injection
This blower pulls harder than my 16psi and nitrous on the old blower. feels like it makes more torque quicker also (quite a bit more torque lol)
I'm also having an issue with belt slipping, boost jumps to 18psi and bounces around between 18-16psi, won't go higher, this pulley is supposed to see 20psi, might have to look into a bigger idler to hopefully make it stop..
Also I may add that my IAT2's never went above 105 degrees in boost, where my old blower IAT2 were 140ish.. but i also only ran 2nd gear out once never bothered with 3rd because second gears goes to almost 70mph and I really do not need another ticket. I will wait for the dyno to see actual temps in 3rd
Also I'm still on stock exhaust :O

haven't gotten the vette yet and no deal will gimme a price on my car cuz none of them have a vette for me to get so they won't take the time to look at it.
i just got a good size crack runnin across 1/4 of my windshield so i gotta replace that and keep tryin to sell it but i don't think the guy with the vette i'm lookin at has had any offers cuz he said he'd let me know.
i don't blame you sellin the s/c stuff, i think that sounds like a good move for you right now with the house and all and a solstice gxp would be pretty sweet. i'm supposed to drive one at a pontiac dealer i was goin to and lookin at the g8 gt and gxp

On that note, I do have a header and catless dp, but stock cat back.
Hoffa, sounds like you got your head on straight, and I wish the best of luck with you. I fully understand your reasoning behind not wanting to do it.
On that note how much for the intake mani??

$17? That'd be a hell of a deal. I bought my '08 in February for $19.
Couple TC's on carsoup:
1. http://myfox9.carsoup.com/used/detai...rtified=0&vc=1
NOTE: Same dealership I bought my TC from and I was actually trying to decide between this one and the one I had purchased. Car looked pretty clean, but the miles they are advertising on Carsoup are wrong. Back on February 14th, it had 2,100 miles on it. Who knows what it has on it now.
2. http://myfox9.carsoup.com/used/detai...=1&certified=0
Both cars around $19,000. I'm sure there are others too. This is just what carsoup had.

I found this on yahoo.
READING, Ohio A curvaceous, scantily clad mannequin can keep her spot outside a Cincinnati area barbecue joint, but local officials want her to cover up a bit.
The life-size figure stands as a busty beacon outside a restaurant in suburban Reading (REH'-ding) owned by Kenny Tessel. He told zoning officials at a hearing Wednesday night that the advertising gimmick has boosted business 40 percent.
The 5-foot-10 mannequin is on the street wearing a bikini top and tight short-shorts, though Tessel brought her to the hearing draped in a long, sleeveless gray T-shirt.
The board said Tessel may continue to use the figure only if it's dressed more modestly in front of the restaurant, too.
He plans to appeal.
Sexy mascot can stay at eatery if curves covered
