We make all the pulls in 4th gear and made a pull in 5th gear by Stillen's request. I haven't put the thermal coatings on anything yet. The only thing different from the last pull was the installation of the Stillen intake. The weather was actually cooler today than before. The air temps must be higher. That's the only thing I can think of.

Nice gains!

I don't know why I've been putting it off for so long... but now my next mod is a 5/16 spacer.

Thanks for the good thread
