I believe that the $8K pricetag included everything like the ECU, tuning, etc. It is worth giving Jeff at Rothsport a call.

No question, slick!

Good thing your not living close to Laguna Seca. You'd never pass the 92db sound limit with those air gulpers.

You'll probably need to wear ear plugs, but with those on a 3.6 the sound would be magical. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

When you start her up you need to tell everyone around to keep their hands and fingers in their pockets. And no ties allowed.

Question:

What is the advantage of spraying the fuel from the very top of the TB?

Is there some advantage with atomization?

Twin batch injection adds one more tunable thing to the pile. At low air velocity, the lower batch of injectors delivers a more effective atomization. At higher air velocity, the top set delivers better atomization. Of course then you have to deal with the overlap and the math starts to get a bit much so many run the lowers all the time and bring the uppers in as secondaries when load hits a given threshold.

Britain this is for you:


The old floor got dirty, so instead of cleaning, I decided to put a new one in alltogether. My new company logo is green/black, so I used it in the floor....

this floor is amazing, the old one was still perfect after 5 years of abuse, only replaced it because I had water damage in the garage.
Never going back to stone/concrete or epoxy in the garage....this is the best

Ok..so is it actual tile or VCT or? It is cool...looks awesome...any experts know how it works over a concrete floor that has moisture issues? Any special prep to make this work in this situation?

Thanks for your input...

I'm about 6 miles away. When they're out there racing it sounds like they're racing down my street so I think that noise limit is already blown out! This car would be awesome at Leguna Seca but then again, I can't even get around that track on the xbox.

It's recycled pvc from electricity wire.

My concrete floor had issues when I had water that came in from the outside, the glue they used before reacted with the water and became mushy. Since the florr is sealed, it could not get away.

They removed the old one, put an epoxy floor on the concrete so moist can never penetrate again and then they glued on the new floor with another glue that can withstand anything........they guarantee never to have any issues again....I just pity the one who will ever have to remove this floor..........not in my lifetime they say...

Sorry for the lack of updates, still in the process of removing body panels/fenders and all stuff that's not going back on before she goes off to be blasted.

Decided to open up the sills from the outside to enable the blaster to reach the inside of the side beams so they can be protected from the elements on the inside before the new panels and new sills go on.

I also lacked to take pictures and bought a 964 that took up some time as well.....

Hope to have some pictures in the next few weeks

Thanks
