Finally got the car back

After waiting almost 8 months for my sc to come in, install apt, and install completed; I finally got the car back today! What a difference...night and day! Already thinking about what's next....cam? Meth? E85? 🤔

Congrats what’s the dyno numbers?
Cam and e85 next imo. Cam just makes it such a fun experience and my hp and tongue curve is so nice.

Definitely e. I'd wait and do the cam when you have to get into the engine. You just spent all that cash on the install. Cams aren't cheap. Well, the can itself is, but the package and install is not.

Man is it loud though! Just cruising around and rpm is over 2k the blow off valve is open. It does close when I get off or on the throttle, but just maintaining a cruising speed I have to drop into the next gear to keep the noise down or sound like a jet plane going by

I second this. I can hear it over my exhaust.

What plugs are you guys running? The kit came with TR6 and the shop swapped them out for I think it was TR6IX. I've heard that Iridium wasn't good for boosted applications. What's your thoughts?

I've been running TR7IXs for about 9 years now.....ZERO issues. I used TR6s in my N/A builds, but for boosted applications, a colder plug, i.e. TR7, would be a safer bet, regardless if it's standard or iridium.
