I'm in. My car is actually with Scott right now as we speak, it's been with him for the past couple months getting the motor build and twins put in. I got the UTEC in it right now but it needs some serious tuning. Scott just needs to get it fired up and we're good to go.

What kind of engine management do you have?

Joe, Scott is taking good care of your car, that thing is going to be a monster man!

BTT to revisit the idea.

I'll chip in irreguardless.

However, I will be building my car soon. Sharif is the onlyperson whom I will let tune my car. My car is in SC (close to Forged Performace). I might
A: Have Sharif build the car in GA and then get the car up to PDX, or

B:Have overZealous1 build the car for me, if he is interested, and have Sharif tune it out here. But then again, it seems like Scott is getting out of the Z business (selling car?).

I'm still pricing out options. Another option for me is going down to SC and working with GTM...let's keep this option open for those that are interested as I haven't made my mind up yet...

I think I am going with option B:

I will have Scott build it.
Sharif, I will still buy the parts from you.
Then, you can tune it up here, along with some other Z's.

I am actually contemplating option C which will involve selling the turbo kit and buy another one in 2008...wonder if any NW users would be interested in a brand new APS TT kit below cost?

Sharif, if you do come out here you should hit up your old "SlowRiders" homies. We were just talkin' about tuners, and turns out they already knew all about your business...

im down, i plan on having forged performance build my block as well. if everyone wants to commit for a spring tuning session, count me in.

the question for me is...the power enterprise TT kit and its power potential. they come with some tiny *** snails..maybe i should upgrade to the greddy...

It depends on how much you're looking for. The PE kit has alot of potential & is a very nice kit. Yeah, the snails are small, but they spool up quicker and you can hook up water lines to them.

>I am aiming for 500 to 525 whp w\ my PE TT kit.
>Sharif at forged performance thinks you can get up to 540-550whp from them.
>forum member priscilla ls1 is hoping for 600whp, see thread here.

IMO, the PE TT kit takes me to some very big #'s. After 550whp, you're in another ballpark: sleeved motor, major drivetrain upgrades, not streetable, etc...

HOLDUP .... JUST A MINUTE! The Georgia G/Z Posse Will Not Release Sharif To Fly Out To Your Location, Unless You Guys Provide Body Guards. We're Concern About Losing Him To A Possible Kindnapping Scam. So Pony Up.

Hehe

I am claiming what is originally mine, before Georgia stole him

Who knows if he'll make it back to the south!

Maybe you Charlotte guys should have installed a 'LOJACK' on his ankles. That's what we've done.
