I would love to see your car. Is there anyway I can tag a long on your up coming track day? How much boost are you seeing? Any pinging?

As for my car I had to order 6 new plugs. 1 of the 3 that I had pulled from the back side of the engine looked really bad. Just waiting on them for now.

I have about 45K. I've probably put on maybe 20k on it since the charger was installed. Unfortunately the current plugs have seen some abusive service.

Not damage from installation but more from this new pulley which maxes out at 10lbs. The pulley has been on the car for about 7 months without an intercooler or E-manage. With that in mind it was fuel and cool temp. deprived. Now both problems are fixed(THANKS STEVE!!) but the effects of abuse are still there. I drove it as best as I could and over that period of time did not push it hard or taken it to the track but miss fires and the like still happened.

Hey SCTL-SS, sorry to hear about your prblem, hope things are ok.

I,m going to be driving over to LACR this Friday. They open at 5 pm. According to their website, the times at this track will be lower due to the elevation. I guess my only other option is the track over in Fontuckey, the California Dragway? It's real far though. Anyway, the LACR site gives a math formula to convert times to at sea level.

Maybe not, I had to remove Jorge's Comptech bar.

Hey, more power is more important.

Also remember, I had to remove my bar for mine as it was hitting under load. That is another reason for the redesign.

I have alot of stuff in my trunk, so I'm not too concerned about the way it looks. Later I plan on mounting the reservoir more securely, or even changing the location towards the front of the trunk with a different horizontal tank. For now it work good where it is.

You get the newer design which is the same as Jesse's. The original was one inch taller.

Hmmm so how is that coolant reservoir in the trunk mounted? All I see is a bungee cord. That's not gonna fly if I go to the track.

Hey mrsteve,

I doubt it as I have never had a trunk inspection. Plus, it is not like it is fuel in there. If you had an accident at the track and it spilled, no harm with water coming out as this would be the least of the worries.
