The TVS really impressed me. I ran into the 9's at full weight and raced a few whipple powered cars and never got beat. They just seem to make so much power so quickly that by the time a whipple or KB gets into its zone it's to late.

Yea TVS is a great blower for it's size. But once you pulley both blowers hard the bigger blowers will make a lot more power.

Its the potential for the TVS 2650 that has me building my car up. Clutch and rear suspension done. Next up, Strange 35 spline axles and eliminator kit and eventually 35 spline strange S track. Then its time to build the engine.

Santa brought me a Stage 2 procharger with a lump of coal for a tune (PC)
Santa also sent my kia forte packing and replaced it with a '16 JGC Overland

I'm having issue with the rev's hanging when car idles, I'm on revision #3, revision #4 just showed up but it will have to wait until this weekend.
Thanks for the offer, I have a shop near me that is helping me out, might just end up going with a Lund tune.

Sorry to jack the thread, carry on

I got the whole car! I had an 08 that I bought new in late 07. Sold ot after 2 years and regretted it. Found another one and brought it home last week. Same color. Clone to my original. 19K miles. Mods already done are a 2.9 Whipple kit, SLP loundmouth exhaust and a complete Ford Racing suspension. Adjustable struts, shocks, swaybars, lowering springs. I already put a set of Michelin's on it to replace the original Goodyear. Good to go for a while. Future plans will be some headers and then who knows.

I think my daughter got the best gift in the world. Actually, it wasn't for Christmas but from graduating The University of Arizona just before Christmas in four years while working 25 to 30 hours per week all through college. I gave her this (see pic). It is THE car I drove her home in from the hospital when she was born, 22 years ago. I have kept it all this time to do exactly what I did, give it to her.... And it is ultra rare. Only 3 known to exist today with TPI / 5-speed....

Wow, nice gift!
A TPI / 5 speed is SUPER rare! They were illegal in California. EPA..........Sheesh.

She won't be forgetting that gift for a while! Way to go.

Edit: You get the 'long range planner' award for today!
