Tuning is taking longer than anticipated; engine tune got done but then needed to get engine in car and do a range of driving to adjust the dune. Just plain ran out of time. Unfortunately, no C5Fest for me this year :(

Well crap, sorry to hear that. Join the club!

Curse this double posting nonsense. Sorry.

Damn sorry to hear that! Maybe we will both have better luck next year and meet up then.

Cheers

Sorry you weren't able to make it out to NCM. Bummed that it rained a lot, but the track was a great experience either way! Very technical track! You have to make it out there at some point.

Thanks guys. Looks like I missed a fun one. Ah well.

Engine has been dyno-tuned and is going into the car this week, with some final tuning and calibration in the coming days. It's going to be an exceptionally well tuned car

I am pretty much out of commission with work in the last week of Aug and first few weeks of Sept, but am starting to line up a ton of track days in the fall (VIR, Road Atlanta, Summit Point). Plus maybe some AutoX. Can't wait to get out there agian.

Engine sounding awesome. Upgraded dry sump is amazing. Aero mods in place. A few more cabin upgrades to tweak. New suspension mods looking great (wait till JP posts pics - pretty cool stuff).

Booking track days at VIR, Summit Point, and Road Atlanta for mid-Sept onwards

What aero bits did you install?

JusticePete · 08-21-2015, 10:06 AM

JPSS custom made for SSsoon.

Look familiar, huh? Great intake. Moved the washer bottle and put a scoop in the front, too, to get more air in there, too. This pic is back before the new rad went in. Looks different now. We'll play "Spot the Changes" later when Pete uploads more pics.

I couldn't help but notice your cold air intakes are what the Mantella Autosport team use on their Z/28.R race cars too

Stephen12ZL1 · 08-22-2015, 10:01 PM

how did you get that tensioner to clear the NW 102mm TB? Did you use the Katech tensioner setup? How about the intake tube?
