Didn't make it brother, we've been in 106* lately in Texas so I was wanting to wait a bit. Wayneroms tunes have been outstanding in getting this thing dialed in nice though! Ironically I've been able to get some quarter mile runs in, albeit in a 100* weather.

I was trying to see which intake setups would work best but ironically, the black intake manifold has shown to give me better times and speed down the strip. 14.6 vs a 14.8 and 96mph vs 94(before Wayneroms help). I'm not really surprised, I think the red manifold has the same effects the BPBs do, stockish cars amazing but full bolt on cars really need all the top end they can get.

I think I'm going to just throw the turbo kit on. I do enjoy the car all-motor, I even recently purchased the 4.56 final drive which I think would complete the all-motor experience for sure but all the R&D is kind of taxing ie. $200 an hour on a dyno, which intake is best, which IM is best, back and forth to the track etc etc.

I/H/E, E85 and the FD swap are the ticket, that's been proven. With the FA24 blocks becoming more readily available, that's honestly the way to go. There's about to be some real supra killers roaming these streets here soon, might direct my efforts that way for a bit.
