Thanks! I just moved not to long ago and have not got my computer up yet. I tried to get on the site threw a program called "Taptalk" but the website seems to not be on there. Here's a quick one I had on my photobucket.

Thank you,Right now it's on a break in tune, just put a new cobra short block in and added some other parts,Tb, plenum,LT headers, Anderson power pipe. I was maxing out the mass air meter at 401hp at the wheels, can't remember the tq. Car has a Vortech V-2 with Chiller kit on it. Just ordered a 95mm mass and I need to move my iat sensor. We Wernt getting a good reading, 91 gas and no ice in the box. After all is said and done, I'd be happy with 450-70 at the wheels
Car has a 10lb pulley and we might see 12-13 on a good pull due to the power pipe

I'm pretty happy with it. Just wish it wasnt the SQ, I would like the louder sound of the blower.
The lift is my buddy's, that pic was the day we put the new lowering springs and shocks/struts

Mine's a V2 Si-trim, I'm not into the loud blower stuff, I want to be stealthy. I'm even contemplating putting stock mufflers, im thinking the ones from a S197 would flow decently and i'll add cutouts. My 87 is ridiculously loud so i'd like to have some more friendly options when it comes to driving on the streets. Sure blower whine is cool and all however it draws attention and I dont like that.

Thank you to all the Welcomes. Still doing this from my phone so I can't figure out how to multi-quote. I can agree with you on that, sometimes it's good to be stealthy and quite. But mine isnt going to be a daily driver, I guess I just like the loud obnoxious noise for when I do decide to play with her lol. But there is a point when it's over kill

The 88 isnt a DD either. I know going in you have to sacrifice something, so i'll give up stealth for power, but only so far

That doesnt make a difference here sadly, plus if you get popped they will report your address and such to the dmv. Welcome to the Distrikt kommiefornia, we're we have laws just to have them, and extras as spares
