    I'm seeing about 12#'s now. It feels worlds different from the 10#'s I ran before. The peak boost is less noticeable than the earlier boost I see. Before I would see only 3 or 4 #'s @ 3500. Now I see 6-7 #'s, Much more fun:D

    on the street 10-12. at the track about 8, for some reason it doesn't run as well as it does on the street. don't ask why, i don't know.(probably tuning, or lack there of)

    how many do i want to run ? as many as it takes to get up to around 500hp.

    Well ya gunna have to spot me about 5, no make it 7 cars :D

    Wanted to make it out to Patton tonight but had to do some unforseen work on SSSNAKE(busted radiator hose). Me not being much of a mechanic, it took me a while to find where the leak was and then fixing it.
    Did you meet down there? maybe next weekend.
    See ya
