That's the way I have mine. I remember a long debate on here about taht way vs. the front cross over.

I know I never had any issues with it and was able to run lots of timing. (Actually too much timing) Where you able to notice any difference in the ability to run more timing?

Is your heater core in line or did you delete it?



[maybe a mod can split the topic]

I still have my heater core.

I am running 21 of timing with 18lbs of boost with meth. Before we tuned for meth I was running 16* with 18lbs of boost. But the cooling mod is useless in my opinion with out upgrading the entire cooling system.

Back when I first put on the S/C, People thought my tuner was nuts for running 19* at 10lbs, but it was like my car just kept asking for more timing. Heck, it was even breaking up because it thought it had too much fuel and adding timing was the only way to even make a full pass on the dyno.

Lizzy's bay is clean as ****. Back when we were competing for ROTM I thought for sure I'd loose just because of his engine bay and undercarriage. I don't think he even drives that car, just details it and stares at it all day. (well when he's not yelling at me for being an *** on the site that is.)
