Car will really wake up. I wish I would have done flex fuel with my first round like what you are doing. These cars love e85. Either way it will be way more enjoyable to drive.

I think your right, but that will probably be round 2. I have learned once you start modding it is hard to stop.

Got my car back from Cordes over the weekend and lets just say with a few mods the car is a different beast. I can no longer hear the whine from the supercharged. This thing is extremely loud, however it is very quiet on the freeway and has NO drone.

I was going to use those plugs but I noticed when I went to swap them out that they went ALOT deeper into the cylinder. I got kinda scared to install them because I thought the piston could hit it. They looked almost a quarter inch longer on the threads.

Interesting point. But I have yet to hear any damaged pistons or rods bending from TR7IX's in an LSA.

I didn't take the chance so I went back with what was in the car.
