Yeah sounds like fun. Feel free to pm me for some brainstorming.

Even though tests show it good, I believe my headgasket swap will correct the issue.

What are you guys all hopping to run? I think I'ma shoot for better than a 13, that way I don't leave home a failure. I like to set easy goals haha

I'll drive it if you want.

I want to run a 11.499 so I get kicked off the track and set a new personal best by .03 seconds :seeya:

If the EVO is running by then I'll be there to see if I can get booted on pump gas.

I'm hoping the car is gets an 11.99. Might be hard with someone driving it that isn't used to my car, but I think I could do it.

Will there be room for me to park my inclosed trailer when I get there? :smoking:

If everybody blows real hard at the back of my car, I might pull a mid 10 sec out of it. :seeya: :woohoo1:

Sexy... So having the collector split like that helps? hahaha Hearing all this and that...makes me giggle. About why this is not done or that.... Man up and get out there.

Halon 06-27-2007 10:20 PM

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 
That manifold is for an Evo, and the stock turbo's are twin scroll. That is why it's divided like that.

HiImBrian 06-27-2007 11:30 PM

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 
That powdercoating looks great. I was thinking about doing that to my cast mani cus they are just so ugly imo, but I think ima get a nice new heat shield made instead.

Kracka 06-28-2007 12:01 AM

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 
That isn't powdercoating. Its a heat coating to keep underhood temps down and exhaust gasses flowing faster.

Great! I went to costco so I have enough supplies for a summer full of smores! :D

And the ceramic coating is shiny now, but I'm sure it'll be dull looking after a few weeks once it goes on the car.

Got the test pipe swapped in, and the car has a lil more get-up-and-go! Definitely registered on the butt-dyno, can't wait to see how much difference this makes overall.

Why couldn't this event be on saturday so we could all stop at shooters on the way home. 15 dollars for 2 song lap dances and if they are playing american pie you get a dance through the whole song. Not like de ja vue where you pay for a 2for1 and all the sudden the song is only 45 seconds long. Shooters is the SHIZZNIT

Vicious are you making the trip solo???

1ViciousGSX 06-28-2007 01:27 PM

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 
Actually I'm just fuckin' with you guys. I can't make it this time, but I really want to make it up there for an event that you guy's are at. Right now I'm between houses, bolting parts onto "V", and plent of other bs. So a 20+hr road trip can't happen right now. But I am putting together a vid as I get it back together for some fun. Who knows, one day I might even find time to get up there and let Shane rub the valve cover and put some of his "mojo" on it while heading to one of the many events you guys have around there.
