stick100 said: ows it drive since the cam change Much much better  pulls hard all the way to the red line. better traction too. Have a small issue that rogers sorting, When you lift off hard at high revs, then engine/ car lunges foward hard, He thinks its holding boost to long when you lift off, and needs a bigger hole in the s/c release valve, Think thats about what he said   Much nicer car to drive now, not that it was bad before, if you know what i mean  and shes faster

If Roger thinks it will be ok, then iam happy with that for now (saying that s t can happen) but i dont want to start forging the engine because i wont stop My car now is a very good alround package But will still fine some small things to keep up the modding

Maybe it's because there are specialists that have done a lot of head scratching, that the main dealers have only had to deal with the regular maintenance.

As i said before, the one best mode on my car has been the tubbing. add that to all the other mods, makes for a great car, but give her more power and she whould lose the fine balance she now has. Hows yours doing ?

Roger had to put 60lb injectors on mine and a bigger fuel pump f k me I just read that and I got lost it's something different from my every day work so it's taking longer then I hoped but if I can hit 400rwhp then the car will be done Iam not spending any more money on it becouse other wise it'll get out of control not that I think people are wrong for doing it But there are some other cars I would like to have at the same time
