(Sorry for the threadjack, PQ.)
I was snapping pictures while he was purging and completely missed it every time... Heck I don't even have good pics of mine purging... just in videos at the track... I'll get him to post it up. Hope I didn't blow his surprise... but then no one is reading THIS thread anymore....

Edit: here's one

Em, why do I have the feeling you will be the first person on Camaro5 with a compound boost daily driver with nitrous...

uhhh, BLACK10 FTW. This is the setup i was guessing at.(510)rwhp


yes, i have seen slippage on the Kenny bell with the stock 6 rib and a 3.750 pulley. Sorry PQ, but once that belt gets glazed over it will slip with that 2.8, but congrats.

but i want to know is how the hell did he get those numbers in 103* temps?? that thing had to be pulling timing. i did some logs on my car today in 95* temps and i was down to 1.9* of timing at some points. was this sae corrected?

Sorry for not reading every page, but I have a couple questions PQ.

My car sounds exactly the same on cold start ups, did Vengeance confirm that it was not the lifters ticking at all? I have taken mine to the dealership, but it didn't tick while they had it so they would not fix it.
Did yours mostly only tick when the car was cold?, and goes away after the car has heated up?

I've changed my oil and it did not help the ticking at all, which I had heard it would if it was the lifters. I'm thinking I must have a leaking gasket instead.

It was a leaky header gasket.

That is some great power on the setup. I'm curious what's making the power drop off after 5500? Need more air getting in or ?

Post up a video. It's hard to say. I got lucky. (well kinda)

Did you install the headers yourself?
