Nice going on the weight. How much prep do you have left?

Header/over/mid-pipe & replacing Injen w/ FA20 CAI--all going on tomorrow (I hope), w/ e85 flex-fuel tune.
I may need to put rear lower control arms to deal w/ non-adjustable camber anomaly (which has me baffled -1.8 & -2.5)

I think final weight will be ~2580.

niiice.. thats just about exactly where I am. Exhaust makes up some difference on the weight too.

Should be good competition.. 15 in class now.. I didn't want to come to the battle of wits...Half ARMED..

..

Look forward to seeing you.

E85 flex fuel tune? Did I miss something in the E85 ruling?

feldy · 03-07-2013, 09:38 PM

No. Its still a valid option for this year. Rule goes in 2014

Pretty much done for now. Catted P&L header/Motiv over & catted front pipes. e85 setup (needs calibrating).

I believe this saved an additional ~8 lbs.

The sound--um... is a bit too buzzy/ricey to me & louder than I'd hoped for w/ 2 cats & factory resonator in place. Maybe a resonated Perrin will help, or OEM lol

I'll have some vid @ event tomorrow.

Simmons · 03-09-2013, 11:11 PM

I am surprised they didn't do any flex joints?

How is the power?

Simmons · 03-09-2013, 11:15 PM

Whats going to be cool is the three of us will have different headers.

Perrin, I got that.... I have one on my car, but its a non-resonated one.

As it gets closer to pure e85--getting pretty darn good w/o any revisions yet--especially in the midrange. Yeah, probably could use some flex joints...

Yeah, Sam--the Perrin will probably be a bit quieter. The note actually got positive comments today--I was kinda surprised it did... lol

And getting to today. Trying to upload vids, but having issues.

Car w/ completely no dial-in was actually very, very good.

Fastest 2wd street tire car of any class (our club even has a SM 2wd & 4wd class). Was within 3/10ths of very well-driven BSP (*edit ASP--DOH!) STi on streeties (1/10th even I didn't tap a cone)--and that venue's surface has always been good for the AWD cars.

4th fastest overall & 1st in PAX (even though club doesn't recognize it) by abt 1 sec over STF car.

I started to fiddle w/ settings/pressure & times started going the other way...

Was going to start experimenting w/ fun runs--but none were to be had (ARRR!)

Latest round of mods definitely were a step in the right direction.

Scooby South · 03-10-2013, 05:37 PM

.. Good to hear....mine is about as ready as it can be.. I guess.. congrats...I know it was a struggle..especially with the header.. But looks like we got'erdone..

Will be there early Friday.. Looking forward to seeing you.
