Default New Shoes!!

Well I've been having a few issues with traction at the track since I installed a 5.4 Cobra motor in my car. Now that she's putting down 663 rwhp she tends to want to spin the tires through 1st and 2nd (Imagine that).

Well today we worked at resolving that problem....baby got some new shoes! Bogarts and MT's!

Looks like they came just in time since the next step is not going to be a 2.8L Kenne Bell (nope changed my mind). Instead were going to go with twin 60mm precision turbos in the trunk feeding the existing Eaton Blower!

I'll keep you guys posted on the progress!!!

(excuse the crappy cell phone pic's I'll get some decent ones tomorrow)

Why don't you start spending your money on performance mods instead of just scoops and stripes and crap.
