Brake pads have come in...
Headers have been picked up and brought home...
Next 3 things to buy are exhaust gaskets, nitrous kit, and a Vararam intake

Nice car man. What headers and nitrous kid did you go with? I haven't heard too many good reviews of that vararam. I have a volant CAI, performs and sounds great.

Everyone on Corvetteforums seems to LOVE the Vararam. *Shrug*

I got Kooks 1 7/8s LTs (catless) and for nitrous I am buying a Dynotune corvette kit and a Harris Speedworks MicroEdge to control it.

Very nice, your car is gonna fly!! The gto is gonna be slow for a while. Building a motor on the side now, forged 427, trickflow 255 heads and just ordered 2 67mm snails last week. Still a lot of work to go

My buddy has a set of twin 57s on a stock displacement ls1 in his trans am. It made 868 on a junk tune with no timing and running out of fuel pump.
So I can't wait to hear what yours makes haha

Carbotech XP10s and XP8s (front and rear respectively) were installed today.
New brake fluid and clutch fluid tomorrow...

Pics... (the guy in the pics is my buddy Matt not me cuz I was weilding the camera)...

Seven · 06-01-2009, 02:45 AM

Well I did 2 track days this weekend. EMRA at New Jersey Motorsports Park Thunderbolt course for time trials and then Pocono Raceway North course with PDA for an HPDE event.
The car did very well, passed a lot of other cars, got passed very little. Didn't have ANY problems other than finally boiling the Motul RBF 600 fluid in the last session at pocono sunday (which I'm sorta proud of... Boiling a DOT4 fluid means youre trying ya know?). I gotta swap out the fluid again tho now. I had a blast tho both days and learned a TON from 3 very AWESOME instructors!!
ROAD COURSE DAYS > *
PICS TO COME in the next day or so (I have 200+ to sift thru).

-Nitrous install and a dyno tune after that
-And then ... hopefully a full stereo install with some new speakers and a sub (which has yet to be bought).

thumbs up to road racing

... looks like a really well put together car and I dig the color of it.

pharnhyte · 06-15-2009, 08:58 PM

Well... the nitrous will get me close to 500whp on the street (obviously not on road course - they don't allow it) and drag... until I get a new intake manifold and heads/cam package (which will be a while til I get it - and even when I do I'll keep the nitrous so I have 630-650whp on tap). Local cars have about an average of 600whp - So I'd like to at least be able to 'keep up' for a while haha. Not to mention we (my friends and I) have been dealing with wet nitrous kits for a while, we shouldn't have issues.

But thanks man ... feel free to give suggestions, or add anything else.

**Got Insulin?** · 06-16-2009, 01:11 PM

Car looks pretty sweet, man. Road racing FTW.

Seven · 06-17-2009, 04:38 PM

Thanks sir

*update* - Headers/exhaust goes on saturday

I think they'd notice an extra 150whp out of nowhere ;)

I don't really like those generation Corvette's, but that color is sick.

*shrug* its not for everyone I guess.
I love the color as well

Seven · 06-24-2009, 08:06 PM

Well the headers are on and the car sounds good.
Had an issue after breaking a coolant temp sensor. Need to fix that tomorrow morning and the car should be good to run. Here's a teaser vid... I'll have a full vid of the exhuast soon.
