Sweet! It'll be here before you know it!

Adam and Big John will take good care of you at ST! Just let them know Nick from Nor Cal sent hugs and kisses...LOL!

I don't think they'll throw it on the dyno, unless you ask them to. I'd highly recommend getting a dyno tune while you are there... It's money better spent as opposed to the GT500 pumps.

So long as you limit your boost, they will easily be able to get you a reliable 420+ with just a BAP.

I'm probably sitting at 450-460 with just a BAP, and I've had no BAP or fuel related issues.

Trust me, we're all running a risk with a blower, but a good tune will be much better insurance than the GT500 pumps.

Wait until you up the boost to get the pumps.

At the very least, check the AF Ratio on the Brenspeed tune to make sure you are running a safe tune...


BTW...while a boost gauge is the "funnest" gauge to watch, the most important in your situation will be a Fuel Pressure gauge and a Wideband.

Good luck, and feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions that come up.

I'm at 380RWHP with the Roush pulley and re-tune. With a CAI, BBR pulley and custom tune I can probably get over 400 but have to see when the time comes. Will I want to spend the money for an extra 20-30 or save it and save more to drop something else under there. Depends on what I do with the car I guess.

Hey Adam,
It a long running joke on the midwest forum about Tom being Brenspeeds poster child. I have personally seen him get gratuities from Brent himself. (ie Vortec banner) The jury is still out on wheather or not there is any money trading going on or not. Favors for sure. I am only taking this opportunity to pick on Tom because I have had to endure about every "old man" or "old fart" dig from that boy that could ever be invented!!
