Sorry for the poor audio quality. I hope to use a different camera this week when we begin dyno tunning.

Installing the water/Methanol injection system. The Pump will be located on the side of the spare tire well and the Safe Injection will be located next to the MSD Timming Twister under the hood. The two jets will be mounted in the air intake pipe near the throttle body. Allan will fab up a bracket to mount the solenoids.

Very cool GIB!!! thanks for posting.

By the looks of it, she may be done soon, right?

Gib · 09-07-2009, 06:10 PM

Here are the new emblems for the hood that I had made at Emblem Pro's.

Gib · 09-09-2009, 08:20 PM

New video with better audio coming by weeks end...I hope. I will be at Futral Motorsports tomorrow & Friday to take pics of water/Methanol injection install and custom cold air induction.

Very cool. Keep us posted.

Now Allan is having trouble with his video cam

and posting. I may have to hire a proffesional to come out and film the dyno runs.

Things moved along a little slow this past week. We had to change our plans on the custom CAI for the third time. Problems with fit and how it would alter the look of the front of the car. Originally I wanted to lose the DRL's and use those openings to force in the fresh air. Now with the help of Andy at ADM, We are going to use there CAI with a little modification. Andy provided us with a bottom plate, that has a four inch round opening from their original prototype that they did not use. Allan welded a four inch tube to the bottom of the plate. He is going to build a sheet metal duct/scoop that will be mounted behind the lower grill opening on the drivers side. The scoop will be conected to the bottom of the ADM box with four inch aluminum tube. Not as trick but should be very functional.

Pics of tranny cooler & ADM CAI.

Looks good Gib.
I would choose function-ability to looking good any day!

Gib · 09-14-2009, 06:35 PM

The GFX is finally installed. We are going to do some surgery on the exhaust to make it look good with the GFX. Need to see if I can get those chrome exhaust exits blacked out.

Finished the CAI. Allan already had the front fascia back on, by the time I got to the shop. So, I could not get a photo of the sheet metal scoop that he made. If he gets the water/Meth injection system finished today and in the AM, we might see some dyno time tomorrow afternoon.

Very cool. The gfx looks good.

You must be dying to drive that car!!

Started the lay out and installing the water/Methanol injection system. Some pics. There will be more.

Gib · 09-16-2009, 08:00 PM

Here are a couple of pics of the bottom of the ADM Intake. Andy at ADM provided us with plate from their prototype that they did not use. Allan welded a four inch aluminum tube to it. He then ran a duct from the bottm to the sheet metal scoop he built behind the lower grill.

Tunning has begun! Looks like we will hit our goal of 500 plus RWHP (625 or so at the crank) on regular pump gas. Lots of tunning and dyno time on getting this one set up. There will be video of the final dyno runs. I will try to post some pics this weekend of the water/Meth injection jets & solenoids mounted under the hood and the Safe Injection & MSD Timing Twister. The Snow Performance computer & controler was mounted on top of the steering column.
