no doubt!

I'm just getting over the one I got on the way up here!

At least if I get one going home, I can drink beer to get rid of it!

Here they are. For now the clips are just like the ones posted before.

I'll try to get some fly by's and acceleration vids later in the week.

I may be going to the dyno tomorrow, if so, I'll video tape that.

oh and I was wrong about how I wouldn't break traction with these tires during hard shifts.

I'm not sure if it's because of a power boost with these headers on, or if it's because I can hear it now since I put on a gatorback belt but I'm getting a little scratch on the 1-2 shifts.

oh and I installed my boost and interceptor guages in my surf pod.
Nothing is installed permanently yet so that's why the pod isn't setting in very well

tarajerame this is from my just bought a supercharger thread

Well I got approval to "buy" a supercharger last night.

She was pretty drunk but I asked her about 4 times with my buddy as a witness!

I told her a few days ago that for my birthday this year, she didn't have to buy me anything, she just had to let me buy something on my own.

I wouldn't tell her what it was, I just told her it was BIG. And I kept stressing big thinking she thought I wanted to buy a harley or a old muscle car or something.

So then I finally told her last night when she was having fun and I was dancing with her. (which I pretty much hate doing)

I said I found a hell of a deal on a blower and it's normally 5K so she said go for it.

I bought the "surf pod" from Richard D from this site. He had it and wasn't using it.

Just got back from the dyno. I didn't gain much with the headers but I didn't really expect to without a custom tune for them.

I only gained about 6hp and 6ft lbs of torque.
I'm not sure why he printed this one off. One run he got 220 hp out of it.
I've video'd it and I'll post that up too.

Old Dyno without headers

It's running a little lean. He said he thought it would gain another 10-15 hp if it was getting more fuel.

Ha ha. Here's a video uploaded to photobucket. It scrunched it up cause my camcorder films in wide screen hi def. but you get the idea. I'll upload it to youtube later. This was the 220hp pull. He did the runs in 3rd but on this one it downshifts to 2nd when he gunned it. You can see how hard the thing shifts between 2-3. I thought the bed was gonna fall off!
