Again big thanks to Detective coating for the great work and the very fast turn around. Everything was packaged very well. No one should have a hesitation sending him anything just because he is not local! Best work I have seen in a while.

I will admit the green in pictures was scary-but in person it is SICK. Iridescent almost with a "white pearl" effect. I love it!

I am sure Jamie will come around the thread- but yes he was spectating for the first time in a long time. The original 71mm Build was this whip

His old car. As I found out the first time I raced him 10+ years ago, always assume he has a little more than anyone else.
Im sorry but 8.3@181 in a car geared to really work well 60-200mph is going to be damn near impossible to beat on the street.
Been Saying it since I have seen it in person.
"Jamie's spec" TTG on Kill> everything. With Billet 71's its just :dumb:
There is only so much mechanical grip+power+Aero a street car can have.
Update-
Just got some parts in from Justin @ Detective Coatings. SICK work! Best powder coating work I have seen in a long time, and best pricing around!

Pics will be up this weekend.
I will also be on the dyno tomorrow, but only for some intake manifold testing. Stay tuned for pics and results. Car will not be at full song for this, but will be back on the dyno for final touch ups before the season starts in a few weeks.
Bolt them both on? :dumb: What am I missing there with physically making it work?
If it makes it all the way down the track a few times wiht this tune, I then be very impressed.
Its at peak power for all of a second on these dyno runs. At least the AP car has videos of it being flogged over and over again on the street.
Truth!
If you can keep it in that power band (and after driving one, the way its geared you could) I can see it runing an easy 10.x@135 with a lazy 60 ft.

What- what?
You found a job, that you are currently employed though, that is covering all of your car expenses, while you are living at home, and still in school?
What/Where are you employed? Sounds like a lucrative gig.
