Thanks man, I just got done straightening out the tips so now they look awesome.

Took the car out last night and man, do these things bellow out some sound when you get on it, holy crap,I couldn't get enough! My girlfriend was laughing at me cuz I was grinning and giggling like a school girl on prom night, her words exactly, Lmao!

Tips all straightened out ... yes the car is filthy ... it's gonna rain here in a day or 2, not washing it yet ...

Looking good, Gabe. That Whipple is huge compared to my little TVS.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Sounds great nice and deep. I may be biased, but the tips look sweet in black.

Great sound. I thought about dipping my Corsas black but it would make them tougher to clean since they get chalked white in the summer

[Gabe]

Where/When you doing the install?

 

[Gabe]

Where/When you doing the install?

Most likely at a friend's shop. No scheduled date yet

 

[Gabe]

Today I ordered the JLT CAI for the Whipple and the 9psi 3.375" pulley.

That gives me everything I really need to get this installed, but I still want to get a couple of gauges, at least a/f ratio, before I get it done.

 

[TGR96]

Congrats on the blower. That should get the party going quick!

I'm interested to see/hear how the PD holds up on the exhuast. Been thinking about doing my Roush AB tips, but I'm not so sure that the PD will hold up under the heat of the exhaust.

 

[LAStang1234]

Is it on yet?! LOL

 

[Surfstang2020]

Ha ha yeah

 

[Gabe]

Lol, no it's not on yet.

Although, today I received the new JLT CAI with the blue oiled filter, so one more part I needed.

Still waiting for the pulley, and then whatever gauges I decide to install.

I also would like to install the RTR rear decklid panel at the same time. I like to do something fairly major to the looks of the car, coinciding with a major power mod, so that anytime I see a pic of the car with the new outside mod, I automatically know that it's also supercharged in that pic. I don't know, might be weird, but I like the idea.

Thanks, and as far as the 2.9, I figured I could always upgrade to that, or maybe even bigger, down the line when I go forged.

For now, the 2.3 will more than suffice.

Hell, the car is fast now and so perfectly balanced, adding the blower will upset things, but I can't wait to get it done regardless.
