Todd,
Are you running 75mm TB also?

Proto has a plenum for after the TB like IPD?

I think the difference is more noticable on a 6 speed car then on the Tippys too Todd. The intake and Plenum helped my spool significantly.

Cool, hope you'll like it. It is a big improvement cruising around town (it stays in 4th).

you know, he could go for the ultimate upgrade, loosing a few limbs, since he does not need to shift and there is no clutch. One leg and one arm would do it, about 60 lbs.

Boston is so close to CT that you should really consider going to EPL. I'm planning a trip up there, but just haven't had the chance.

Billy,

I was thinking the same thing - you should get to know EPL for your tuning. He's close to you - I go there from NH all the time and it's not a bad drive at all.
