RE: WON the race
good race. 3800's are beatable but most often they win over a splitport
my 97 3800 bird is one that has never lost to a lightly modded splitport. sadly i think my torque converter is going out though and pretty quickly. just what i needed right now a repair that i can't afford to fix but need the car for work

RE: WON the race
See I told you it would be close and that the person that got the most traction off the line would win.[8D] Well since your stock and you just barly beat him, then I know for sure that I can beat them if I can barely beat basically stock 99+ V6s, and I'm thinking about doing gears here within the next month or so.

RE: WON the race
Let's see, $70 for the cai, $255 for the tb, had a 73mm maf, but fully ported out my stock MAF for free, x pipe without cats $200, Magnaflow GT cat backs $400, dual installation $100, $275 for the tuner, $70 for the 9mm wires (still on the way), $70 for the underdrive pulleys, $65 for the waterpump pulley which I'm still procrastinating on installing this one because I'm going to paint all of my pulleys either metalic red or billit, not including the $1200 for my sterio system. So I have $1500 worth of mod, minus the sterio and shipping cost of each of my mods.
