Default dyno run yesterday

i dont know but i was hoping that after dumping close to 3k into the car i would have more than 258hp to the wheels with i think it was about 288 in rwtq. but i got to sit in it and go through the gears, and mash the crap out of it-reving to 6200 before backing off!! what a rush!!! but i'm still disapointed.

I know you probably don't want to hear this but it's true. You have to pay to play. Unfortunately with these 2v cars it's kinda f/i or go home. I spent a good deal of money as well before I realized this too.

Well with your mods you'd still probably beat alot of the mustangs out on the road. So be happy about that.

Just save up for a blower and you can beata whole lot moreof them

For those that know they aren't going FI anytime soon (how many of us have said "coming soon!" knowing damn well it was a pipe dream?) bolt ons are the practical choice. Everyextra ponyadds up....

i dont see why F/I is a pipe dream. if you save your money from "full" bolt ons, you could have the money for a centri, especially a used one. thats what i did, and for probably about a similar price, i have ~350 rwhp. it just sucked saving for one big mod instead of being satisfied every once in a while with a small little add on lol.

just seems actually better though, dollar per horsepower.
