    Go big or go home Rob ....

    That is what is sort of odd for me. I've finally hit the point that I really am happy with what the car runs, and it really doesn't buy me much to go much faster. All of this is just so that I can run what I've been running a little easier and not have to push everything as hard. If it goes much quicker I will have to slow it down anyway.

    Aren't to many shiny parts available for the 2.3 stuff. Esslinger just came out with these billet water pump pullers and washers for the cam and aux pullies ....

    My boost come in just off idle .... With the new cam, idle might be 3,000 rpm or your typical launch point
