Installing a paxton novi 2200.

Haha yeah they really got the most out of the space available. I was thinking I would have a ton of rattles but none at all so far.

Did you guys run stock spark plugs? Worth to get one step colder? What gap?

Well I'm running behind still, but I'm almost done with it. Blower is on, and all I have left is the piping for the intercooler. So far it's pretty strait forward.. The trimming on the fan assembly isn't bad at all, (the color instructions are awesome) the blower bracket is very sturdy etc.. It's me and a friend doing it. I'm pretty mechanically inclined, and I'd say he is "gifted" as far as car stuff goes.. Much better than I am that's for sure. We have a total of 7 hours into it so far, and I figure with another 3-4 we will have if fired up and back together tomorrow.
We're not rushing, just taking our time and making sure we get everything right. I put the 3.30 pulley on it and the jlt big air kit is going on too. should make some good numbers I hope. It'll be dropped off at the shop for tuning late this week I figure and I should have it back this weekend or sometime next week.

Btw... Anybody know where I can tee in a vacuum line ? I've got a boss intake on the car if that helps. I'll have to look tomorrow to see where to hook it up.

I worked on mine some more tonight. Piping is all done, intake is done. Had to trim JLT cold air shield, it was hitting the radiator hose and pinching it. Reinstalled the bumper.

Just need to trim the under tray and waiting for sparkplugs to arrive from Summit tomorrow. Can't wait to fire it up!

It;s alive!

Drove it around the block. Runs not bad, still only base tune, so I didnt step on it yet.

Still need to get the air out of the cooling system and install the Kenne Bell BAP.

[Kaane]

Finished BAP tonight. Ready to drop it off at the tuner tomorrow and get it tuned friday.

Damn, you guys are going to be enjoying yours before me, and I've had mine installed for almost two weeks!

I wish there was a shop around here...

Yeah still logging. The tuner must be hella busy because I only hear back from them between 8:30 and 10:30 AM mountain time. And I'm still waiting to hear back on a log I sent them Friday AM.

Good luck bro, I know the waiting would be killing me, but it will pay off.

Thanks man. Hey, are you going to keep the 3.73s or go with more of a highway gear? I haven't decided yet.

I'm gonna keep the 3.73s. I'm not much of a track racer, I'll be lucky to run at a track once a year. I've always had 3.73s in my mustangs so I doubt that will change. I'm definitely going to get some drag radials soon though. I think the Nitto NT05s will hook well on the street. As long as I can get around 8000 miles out of them, I will be happy.
