Wow, you move crazy fast. This is an awesome thread. Subscribed for more! How do the mods feel on the butt dyno?

The car feels great. I am 100% certain it has more/better usable power but the butt dyno lies so I'd hesitate to guess how much. I am assessing tuning options (I hate tuning it's always a trade off on which solution you choose) and will get that and dynos done in the near future.

All that is left other than a tune to do is the calipers.

Thanks!

I made an appointment yesterday to get a tune and dyno Friday. So we will see what all of these mods achieved pre tune and then what the tune garners.

Here are the results. He said the mods were working very well with the computer so the gains are not that extreme. I am very happy with the results. This is in 5th gear it's a bit higher in fourth and he is emailing me that result which I'll post as soon as I have it.

Nope. I'm pretty much where I want to be.

Whitline LCA bushings in, rear fenders rolled as the correct offset caused the rear 285/35/18s to rub.

Can't wait for the rotors to come. Hate the area the pads are not hitting that is rusty.

The mileage amazes me. The car averages 23 with a 70/30 mix of street 70% and gets 34 on the highway at 70.



That is after about 20 minutes on the highway.

Pretty cool imho.
