Tubular Manifolds really really seem to help the X's out for top end power, 40whp is crazy amounts of power, the CBRD one showed like 30-35 too. So basically it's an awesome mod, screw lag, lol, I bet it's worth the loss in spool
EvoX still does not have NLTS yet either. That may be worth anywhere from .1-.3 secs depending on a ton of variables.

So, more practice and NLTS the car could get down to 12.2 or mayyybe 12.1?

I'm really happy with the setup; not sure where I'll go from here. On one hand I could do cams and (hope) for significant gains to run 11's on straight pump gas. Or maybe a crazy MAP Rev2 or Rev3 intake manifold with one of those 75mm adapters and a boomba TB (and again HOPE for significant gains)? On the other hand I could do alky or e85 and go for the guaranteed power gains....

heck for that matter, I could just do a race gas tune, add timing and a little boost and have that be my 'weekend' setup, no extra hardware required At $7/gallon it'd get spensive pretty quick though!
