Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 

Just wondering if anyone is doing any last minute bolt-ons or full builds before the track day on July 8th? I was hoping to do a SS o2 housing, ported manifold, and test pipe, but it looks like I'll just be doing the test pipe. The o2 housings are on back-order, and since the ported manifold won't make much difference without it, I'm not going to bother swapping it in.

I broke all my stuff so I'm hopefully going with my buddie and his SRT-4. There's a small chanch I might have my car fixed though.

I still need to get out and tune it, been too damn busy with other stuff.

I'm going to stop eating lunch so I weigh less.

JET, don't forget I called you out!

Swifty, didn't you get your car tuned already? Put some gas in that thing & lets see what she does already!

I need to get some 1000cc injectors and two turbos fabbed up with dual 4" exhaust. Oh yea, and the car delivered here and the other one gone.

Correction, I WILL NOT make it now. Flying on the 8th at 7am. I'm going to stab someone.

Last minute? HA my crank gets back from the machine shop wednesday.
We are trying to get 3 cars up and running afterhours (if this heat gives us a break) for the event.

good luck to you fellows.

Chris, I was tuned, but the old clutch gave out on the dyno, ending my tuning session. I've got great luck with dyno-tuning. I have the new one in, but even so, I'd only be tuned on pump. Race gas won't go in till I get off and install the whole fuel system I have sitting in my room, and a JMF intake mani put on.

im doing an engine rebuild :)

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 

So put a clutch in and run on pump gas. By the time your setup is "finalized and ready to go" oil will be long gone and your great great great great grandchild will be throwing moon rocks at your car wondering what the fuck it is.

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 

Cher, what are you going to put those turbos on? Come drag your evo!

Swifty, quit making excuses! Tune on pump and lets see what that thing will do! At least get some shakedown runs in!

Brandon, :( I'll take lots of pics for you!

I'm putting another 150 lbs into the car to get it to full street weight! I may decide to leave out the sub and spare though, just for fun.

Also replacing the rear brakes, rear swaybar, and getting an alignment.

My bike is getting the carbs synched and re-jetted and a new muffler.

Re: Last minute builds/changes before Proving Grounds on July 8th?
 

Well I've finally done my breaks so I can stop when I get the the end of the track. And my sway bar links are in as well so I can not flip over and lose control while my rotors would have been busy sucking at life. I did a boost leak test and found 2 leaks. One was in a line and the other is my tb gasket. I replaced the line today and my fellow winoner friend gave me a tb gasket. I just baught a dsmlink cable that will work with my mac. So I can pull that battery, take out the tb, replace the gasket, and put everything back on and reload my tune. Then I'll probably still be unsatisfied and go get another tune with more boost. Shane I hope your not too busy this week!
