Congrats!! So, the Evo TT is too loud for you huh? Why did you decide to use 2.5" TPs instead of 3.5" TPs? I also was not planning on getting the cams, but couldn't resist.. so, I got the GTM spec 2 turbo cams. Since the rest of my setup is pretty similar to your's, it would be interresting to compare my numbers with your's.

I had my doubts about my cams - GTM stage 1 turbo cams. But after the tune, Tuan was impressed with the power they made. The stage 2 cams should be even better.

It must be nice to be driving it again after so long.
Definitely Aaron, I'm glad I went with the 14psi. No regrets. As I've already said before, thanks for the all the advice and input on my build.

Definitely, 510whp is pletty for me. I know many will say I'll eventually want more, but reliability and longevity are my goals for this car. Too much money to risk for a just few more ponies.

Thank Ron. Yes, it's a lot a fun to finally have her back. Ditto man, your Z is so unbelievable. I wish I could see it in person.

Thanks George and you were right! No doubt about it, it's a great clutch. It so smooth without any cement mixer sounds that I notice. Is it possible though, to lower it's engagement point?

Can't wait to hear about your G when it's finished.

Thanks, it's not too loud. It's just a little louder than I expect. I went with the 2.5s because that's what I already had and I felt it wouldn't of made much of a difference. I definitely don't want it any louder. Yes, it will be interesting to see your numbers. I plan on getting it on a dynojet to see how it compares with GRD's dynapak. They've said their dyno is set to typically run less than a dynojet.



Thanks a lot everyone else, for the compliments and congrats!!

No, I just can't give you an answer. I don't know exactly why it happened.

Congrats on getting the car back up and running, to your satisfaction. Definately a long time coming, but hopefully it was worth it for you in the end.
