glad to see things are going your way...rpm and rossler are great companies, but i like to give the hard working guy a chance , and jake has a great reputation thru the forum websites i searched...i thought the pricing was excellent and felt good with him...also i like the personal touch i get when dealing with them...i originally sent mike a email off there website and told him of my build and he came back with a stage 2.5, and did not try to push me up for anything higher...i then called about a month later and mike still had my email , also remembered the entire email and we never even spoke once...after telling him what i was lookin to do and how i wanted a 70/30 driver ...we came up with the stage 4 and he gave me free shipping and some other things..he sent over the cam spec sheet for the stall and followed up by phone and even emailed me on his wifes bday{off work} to let me know everything was getting ordered.chris{ diet coke} also bght a stage 2 from jake aka jakeshoe on various forum boards...maybe some of my karma rubbed off..lol..good luck bruce and you can still throw the firebird in the convoy,, might have to rebadge it..lol..camarobird..

Release time while data logging is .062 seconds so far. It should get faster when we calibrate the trans internally for the brake and use an actual button to set/release instead of the laptop....jakes video of transbrake ..

So a blow off valve takes boost created that's not needed and allows it to escape....is that right?

Pretty much. But it is not just that the motor doesn't need it, it is more to keep from forcing air against the throttle blades and/or not allowing the compressor to have to absorb that energy. |

Its amazing at all the things that can go wrong during a build. I learned the hard way to never go with a shop because you got a good deal. Best advice ever, to everyone, find a shop that has a great reputation, talk to them before you ever send them your car and make sure you are comfortable with their feedback. I personally found Cincy Speed to complete my build and they are absolutely AMAZING guys and care about my car as much as I do and thats rare. My car is finally done and heading to the track Friday for the first time and hopefully we can get it dialed in enough to make some impressive runs at Indy for LSX Shootout. Bruce is the only person I know who has waited longer for his car than me. Im sure both of our cars will be well worth the wait when they are finally finished tested and tuned.

I may try to get to Indy for the LSX shootout if I know you're going to race! Do you know when you will be racing? |

I am arriving Friday and staying thru Sunday. I am going to be racing the 5th gen class and true street class. Cincy Speed is bringing my car over to Indy for me and meeting me there and Craig from Xtreme Innovations which is who did my cage and suspension is also meeting us there. My car will everyday as Friday is 1st qualifying then Saturday is another qualifier and heads up and Sunday is finals. We are all staying at the Hilton Garden Inn by the airport across the street from the host hotel as it is already full. You should definitely come on over to Indy as it is going to be a blast no matter what and I would love to meet you in person.
