Thumbs up

That third shot looks like a huge snake crawling around under your car!

At any rate, good luck with the final few steps...I hope you're completely satisfied with the finished product. I'll be getting my car back this weekend, too [hopefully] so we'll have to meet up and shoot the **** about Porsches some time. Looks and sounds great!

When does the new motor arrive? What's the estimated time before TOTAL completion (i.e. new motor with all the goodies.) A couple of weeks ago you said 120 days, is that still the target?
Thanks

CJV,

I was at S Car Go today to get the headers, throttle body, splitters and intake plenum to be installed. Saw your car on the lift. What a beauty! Saw your Dyno Chart too. WOW!!!

I hope to get my car back on Friday. Maybe I will
meet you there.

regards.
Fred

Chad,

I have been there with the hose clamps constantly blowing off after a high speed run. The solution for me was "Breeze" constant torque clamps. I have several sets. PM me if you wish!

Belair Composites can custom make any lines. I have used them in many custom applications. I can get the info for you. I am out of town and will be back on Monday. I will do it then.

Hey Wilber,
Where did you get the plumbing for the intake made? Looks nice. Where is the air filter(s) relocated to?
Thanks,
Konrad

cjv,

I am going to pick up my car on Saturday around 11:30. They dynoed my car today. 512HP/470TQ at the wheels, not bad at all, and this is yet to have the final GIAC software adjusted to 100 Octane. So I should see another 30-40HP ;-)

In response to the stock ECU, it has been modified with the GIAC Software. GIAC actually is the programmer for EVOMS Software.

CJV, the TQ is low because I am running a little rich. I will have this adjusted and should give me a nice increase in TQ.

Took my car back today but something was wrong with my car. Looks like my car has a vaccumm leak. This explains why my car had no power and car at idle was acting wierd. Would start a 1000 rmp go to 2000 rmp's then back down to 1000 and back and forth. I will take my car to my friends body shop and look for the vaccumm leak.

CJV, would you be so kind to call me if you don't mind. I have a personall question to ask you about Rob at S CAr go. 650-906-8809

thanks
