Who's doing your install?
Maximum Velocity Performance. Tracy Keller (Race Rat on youtube) is the principle and Tim does most of the installs. Getting ready for Texas Mile at the end of October too. 225 spots sold out in less than two hours!

Got it back today. Sorry, no pictures of the 3.08 gears. I will say it's nice to be able to go 70mph in 4th under 3k rpm.

Man, it works too. Want to plant a rear end in the corners? Get a watts. Took all the bumpy corners around my area and not once did it get loose. Not once. Felt like I had an IRS under me.

I am considering that after a few other 'black box' and 'birthday present' mods

Thanks, hopefully won't need it. Should probably reach 180 if I get a good launch and smooth trip. I'll be running all three days (Friday-Sunday) so I'll have plenty of opportunities to reach a high speed. The REAL fun comes in about a month (4 weeks from today in fact) when I have a 9-mile open run on a highway. Going to shoot for 200+ there.

Hopefully two, if I can get a friend of mine to let me borrow one. I've got dash and bar mounts for my Hero3+, and I'm going to have my phone recording my digital speedo on the 9-mile run to see how fast I actually get. I won't be watching anything but the road.

Hope you'll have some properly heat-cycled tires for that top speed run.

These tires have already been heat-cycled. If you mean having the tires at the proper operating temp, that won't be an issue either. The tires are the least of my concerns; they're in perfect shape for it.

A 10 second mod....replaced the stock antenna with a shorty.

Mileage has improved by more than 15% and I got a 5 hp increase. Shifts are faster too.

Just proves that size doesn't always matter.

Yesterday, I replaced my black Redline Tuning hood struts with their polished ones because I thought they would look better with the body color and the other shiny things under the hood. I also installed Raxiom's taillight sequencer which adds sequencing to the lock/unlock, hazard and brake light features. Then I detailed her inside and out for today's car show my club put on at Holman Ford in Maple Shade, NJ. No trophy, but a great time.
