Soon to come!!
Car is in the shop as we speak. Dropped her off yesterday morning. Following items will be installed:
NX wet kit 100 hp
Gen X2
MSD window switch
Tranny temp gauge and Air/fuel
Century built tranny with vig 3200
Hotchkis subframes and lower control arms
Racetronix Fuel Pump Kit
Strano's Koni adjustable front/rears
TR6's
And a full before/after dyno and dyno tune
I have a msd retard(new in box) that I am going to sell if anyone is interested. He said it was easier to just program the retard in with the dyno tune.
I will post numbers as soon as she is out of the spa. I am hoping for around 475rwhp with the introduction of the higher stall. I've got 224/230, ported heads and intake by Lloyd, 52mm tb, hooker lt's with off road y pipe, 36lb injectors, cai, 1le converting to trickflow elbow(hey that's 20 hp right there), msd 6al, 3.23's, and then the dyno tune. Even if I don't get the big hp, I am hoping for good times at the track..mid to high 11's would be nice. The engine has about 28k on her now...5k on the upgrade. Any guesses? I'll post the dyno sheet when I get her back...hopefully tomorrow!!!! Thanks for all the help that everyone gave me!

Re: Soon to come!!
I went to the shop today. The new tranny was in, the subframes, lower control arms, shocks and struts, the new plugs, and the fuel pump. They have the mounts installed in the back seat for the nitrous. The main set back was the racetronix kit. There was a delay in gettting them the instructions. The exhaust is still not on. They said it would be all done on Tuesday. I'll let ya know as soon as I do...I'm trying to be patient.

Re: Soon to come!!
Well, I've got good news and bad news. Good news:everything is done and the nitrous looks great. Everything, with the nitrous, seems to be running just fine. The set up on it looks unbelievable. The three switches are located right on the base where the shifter is. They are right behind where the 1 drive is, and they are all in a row...the arming switch, the bottle heater and the purge. I will take pics as soon as I get my camera back. The car handles unbelievable!! Stano's Koni/Koni set up is like night and day. Now, the bad news...The tranny isn't running very well. They wanted me to break it in over night to do the dyno tomorrow morning. It shifts fine in the higher gears, 2-4th, but in first gear, it kind of jerks like a person that doesn't know how to drive a standard. The rpms are also very sparatic...the rpms will drop and then go up high...it is weird. When you are stopping, it down shifts really fast and kind of rattles. So, now we are back to square one. They are going to test drive it tomorrow and see how it does. Hope everything is okay with the tranny. Anyways, if you have any input, please tell me. I will keep everyone posted and hopefully everything goes smoothly tomorrow.
