    Chris, I came out only like 20 ahead lastnight. Lost $10 in a hurry since they where playing some stupid *** wildcard poker crap.

    Then they started playing omaha and texas holdem, and I faired much better.

    I spent about 5 hours today powerwashing the damn underside of the car and the engine. The whole car actually. Seemed like everytime I washed the thing, more and more crap would come out of the cowl, or the window moldings, so I stayed after it with the powerwasher today until it was clean.

    I'll have full update late tomorrow. I took a couple pictures today, and will have some tomorrow as well.

    hmmm, Well, today the 42# injectors went in along with the guages.

    Now to make some decisions for the mounting of a blow through meter, and then the car is a running mother.

    Any suggestions?

    My kit uses a Draw-through, Are opting to use a Blow-through OR does your kit differ a little from mine ?
    Just wondering.......

    It's a draw through just as ptk sales it, but I just don't see that there is anyroom for an 80mm pro-m, so I'm going to make it a blow through setup.

    On the Corral, under turbochargers they're talking about using drawthru meters in a blowthru application, supposedly the only diff is that proM puts a ridge on both ends of the meter to keep the hoses from blowing off. Guys on there say they do it all the time. :D
    Maybe that will make you feel better......

    haha, I don't really feel bad about it. Alot of meters can be used either way. Like the bullets for example. But since there is no straight shot for the air on the cold side, I feel that a univer may be a bit more forgiving and not as finiky. Will see I guess.

    Here's a few before and after of the clean up, and a side shot to give ya an idea of what the exhaust looks like from under the car.

    What do you guys think of the bullets on it?

    The Bullets look nice...... :D
    2 questions:
    1st, What size is the down pipe on the kit ?
    2nd,What size single exhaust did you use ?

    Bastards! lol

    Frank, the down pipe is 3" and the exhaust is 3" non-mandrel. I figure if I want to make big numbers or times, I'll just take it off.

    Subframes are in the very near future. I don't know about the other pipe though. lol

    Eric, I havn't really gotten into it yet. I'm still waiting for my mass air meter to show up, so currently it's just the stocker with the optomizer controlling the 42's. I'm kinda afraid to really get after it. I will tell ya, that the car seems very docile compared to the novi. The manners are much better. I should have the front clip back on it, gauges wired, and be ready to roll this week. I"m thinking track time this friday might be in the forcast. :D

    I just got back from dallas, sold the bullet, and also sold the brakes, so thats $750 in the mustang piggy bank. NO SPENDING THOUGH! :D
