I know someone right now that's selling a '71 Camaro, that's kinda desperate, but I can't fit another car in the garage!

I'm gonna hit up the Borla muffler soon enough, with the intercooled tip, and I'll have to figure out a good resonator to keep the sound right. I can handle a slightly ricey exhaust, if it gives me some power, and as long as it's SLIGHTLY ricey.

Alky sounds good, I'm a little worried about the warranty issues with that though. Something goes wrong in the engine, and I won't have the money to get a lawyer to fight the denial of warranty. I'm not concerned about the injection itself causing a problem, just a general engine issue that gets blamed on my injection.

I have to see what's in the Psi-Fi kit... I'm back and forth with it. Some good dynos would help. Alot. If the injectors are not running out with people swapping the pulley and popping the boost lines, I'm a little confused why we need such a big kit to do the same basic thing. Details will clear alot of it up, I'm sure of it. I know the Cobalt Cup cars are running 77.X mm size pulleys, but they don't give any information on the computer systems too much.

i agree about the PSI kit, but you have to think that they want to offer this kit, and be able to take advantage of the same tuning they've worked out for the twincharge kit. people are swapping pullies, but are they effectively raising boost above the 15psi or so our cars can see? seems like the worked something out, and i cannot wait to see dyno's either. hopefully not TOO soon though, like i said, i want to get in on the initial buy to keep the cost down.

picking up my new filter tonight, not gonna put it on until i put the stock tube into the fenderwell back on though, i want to try and feel the difference. interestingly enough i've been getting better and better gas mileage with the old dirty stock filter with the ghetto ram air hanging down there
