LOL Very strange !!!!!

Not more than 5 minutes ago I got off the phone with the shop trying to make an appointment to have it installed and rework some of the other piping .

Putting onto a 3 inch IC pipe might be a problem though....pic to follow

I dont know how much GTM changed the pulleys . Doesnt really make much difference . I am not pushing it past 7200rpm and trying to make over 500whp with it . That is where they ran into problems at . With a few more bugs worked out , it will work just fine with what Im trying to get out of it .

I have no video camera , but the car is finally going into the shop Monday to put on that new BOV and some IC pipe alterations.....AND FINALLY.....a new EMS to handle the boost that the SS box couldnt . Ordered the Haltech earlier this week.......Maybe with a little luck I can finally see what the T-trim can do on a AT5 G35 . I dont expect it to be near what Derek's car did with it . But it should be plenty for me
