Got the coil on plug setup today. Car seems to run smoother in all area's. Also seems to have a bit more power. A+ for this product! Forecast isn't looking to good for tomorrow. Probably won't be able to run the car. We shall see though.

It was nice meeting you today! Likewise man! How did it go at the track? Didn't go very well, lol. My launch was way to low (only 6k) as it would just bog down as soon as the clutch was let it out at all. Could not get anything better then a 2.5 second 60' unless I unplugged the clutch switch and launched at 8k (that was annoying). Didn't have a laptop with me to raise it up to 7 or so. Anything slower than a 1.6 is just unacceptable The second issue was I was only able to hit 130mph max at 8k in 4thgear with my street tires 2-3 seconds before the line, and I really didn't want to shift to fifth. Then we also got rained out, lol. I'll be returning in a few weeks once I have the launch dialed in and my taller Hoosiers on so I can get some real passes in I'm going to raise my limit to 8400, but mechanically, i should be ok for 137MPH with the hoosiers at 8k in 4th which should do the trick.

Bummer to hear but at least now you know. It was definitely on the chilly side and rain would not help any.
Those Hoosiers should definitely help out, I look forward to hearing the good news when you break into the 10's this month! GL!

Yeah for sure. In other news, I closed on my house this morning. Going to move in tomorrow I'll post some pictures of that later this weekend. Hopefully I can drive the 26' Uhual truck decently, lol.

Solid Scotty!!! Where did you end up getting your place at (city)?
Sick garage man...I'm jealous, mine is a 2 car but old and on an asphalt slab. When that bad boy is insulated you'll be heaven this winter!

Nice, you're about a half hour from my apartment and literally right down the road from my work (I'm an electronics assembly engineer at a place named Debron Industrial Electronics on Executive drive just off 14 mile just east of the mall).

It's at Hall road and Garfield, it's probably a little bit longer than a half hour from your place. I gotta tell ya, after growing up on the west side of the state in Grand Rapids I love it over here in the "Detroit Metro Area". Everything is just nicer over here, way more culturally diverse, and not to mention I can find anything I need no more than 5 minutes from my place.
Nice looking place by the way, I'll have to stop over after work and get a ride in the sick Evo.

Nice scott. That garage looks small from the outside but wow, it seems pretty spacious in the inside.
