Welly welly well well....Mr Nall is getting pretty big for his britches now

His set up is amazingly fast although (as I told him) would not last long on the stock tranny. How much is that TC running you, Todd?

I think the Black Horse needs to run The Jitsu mobile on full kill..in the Houston heat

To anyone else I would highly recommend his set up. It is the best bang for the buck out there.

It seems that the injectors make a difference....guys have been running the 24/18's for a while now and the injectors seem to cut a half second off the 60-130 time.

I think its 50/50 on that Sean. Adam Bowles has a similar setup to me and I believe he ran a similar time to Todd. Its kind of interesting ...... its why i'm itching to get a time so badly.

Boca,

You'd feel a pretty significant difference. I'd budget no less than 8K with software. Labor is additional. I managed to get all my parts for just under 7K but I did alot of shopping. Bought several things used as well.

The best thing for you to do is ask Dan at Vivid to give you a quote for all the hard parts. Labor varies, just ask your wrench. Get the 60lb injectors but keep the stock 3.8 FPR. Will you feel a big difference? A flashed K16 car can do 9.5 60-130. With this set up you can go as low as mid 6's. That's a huge difference, it feels like a completely different car. BUT, if you do as I have done, you will be calling EVOMS for an upgraded TC ($1700), because the stock one will not handle it very long. Maybe 2000 miles.

I'm in the process of adding some new mods. I'll take you up on that offer.

Ben-ha-meen,

Budget? Ha! I could have done it cheaper. Do you or anyone else for that matter know what the limit is for the stock tip tranny? I keep hearing it's limited but who actually knows for sure? I'm going to find out. I can rebuild it for $2400.00.

Which intercoolers do you have (AP)? That's one of my next moves.

Some GT30 cars need to nutup and run 1.2bar on pump so they won't have to worry about pesky 24/18 cars

Todd's car is truely a bad *** all around car though and I'd recommend the setup to anyone just wanting a car that can haul *** and still drive good at the same time! You have 3 great options for kits with the 24/18's, EPL, Softronic/Vivid, and Proto. you can't go wrong with either one of them!
