Ohhh, how did I miss this? Man, you're a dick. Leaving all the trailing blackness left me hoping for at grand finale

What's your guesstemate on power increase from the crank+manifold? Sounds beautiful...

Since the last dyno, between the wilwood brakes, 245 45 17 tires all around, crank pulley and high volume manifold probably a loss. 1st gear is extremely livley probably due to the massive weight loss there, otherwise it all feels the same way it did before manifold and pulley and after the tires and brakes which was a bit less willing to windout up top, to be expected.
Dont get me wrong nothing drastic, but I can feel it. Rotational mass increase sucks but oh well.
After the June dyno and June track day was to close up shop on N/A & nitrous. Happy enough to break 12's in 97degree heat using nitrous.

The next battery of mods starting back in July were all intended for use with F/I, so no worries.
