Congrats on the new power ... now the fun starts!!! I drove 5 hours one way so Sharif could work on my car and drove home with almost 100 more WHP. Can't go wrong at Forged Performance.

Well I drove the car back to Cincy, I made it in 6 hours this time As opposed to 7 hours down! The car really flys now, and the gas milage even from start to end of the trip was 32MPG! I know sharif wont believe this as most others wont so I have pictures of the gas meter and my GPS to show you guys. My top speed on the way back was 139mph and I spent alot of time between 80 and 90mph. The car is so much more fun now. I will be going to a local dynojet to get some DJ numbers as I agree, speculation is about as accurate as bench racing. Stay tuned for those numbers, hopefully I get that arranged this week.

Nick

How many miles did you go on one tank? Just so you know, your OEM trip computer is going to be inaccurate, since the stock ECU isnt controlling the injectors.

HAHA, the jokes on me, damn the stock trip computer! We made it back on one tank, 468 miles, ill fill up tomorrow and see exactly how much gas I used. My guess is 17 gallons. That still puts me at high 20's. BTW I wouldnt have stopped at 139, there was plenty of road left but Kevin was about to **** him self and made me stop! I still had about 700RPM left in 5th! One thing i do know is that our stock speedometer is accurate with in 1mph at 100mph! GPS proven.

+1 took the words out of my mouth. Great NA numbers...
