Time to go put some of Shawn's detailing wisdom to good use. I got the wheels nice and dirty at the track last Monday.
Primo intake...bead rolled!

I stuck with aFe. I liked the quality of the drop-in that I use to have and you and scheides think highly of them.

The oiled filters would have matched my color scheme better but I feel better running the Pro Dry S to avoid any MAF problems.

Thank you for everyone that voted for me at the Cookout. I know it's no big deal to win 1st out of 5 cars...especially when most of the other contestants are friends that spent 1/2 the money. lol
It feels good anyway. My build was always intended to be 1/2 show and 1/2 track. This small bit of validation is appreciated!
I look forward to going to Factory MOD in Illinois next month and thanks to those of you that have helped me get to this point.

Seeing your car in person says more about it than the pics I've seen. Looks very clean and every part was thought out.

When I was on the stock tune I had bolted on the AMS 3" intake and drove it to DB to drop it off...no big deal. I installed the Primo intake and drove it to DB tonight and the car was really pissed off. I guess I should of just thrown it on in his parking lot but I knew I wouldn't be getting there until fairly late.
We'll see what he can do with it tomorrow. It's a lot of work so I wonder if he'll have enough time. He'll be scaling the 3.5" MAF, installing the ID2000's, and doing two tunes that can be map switched. One will be similar to what it has now -- 25psi and 400whp or so. The other tune will be whatever she's got at 30-32psi. I asked him to give psi-based boost control a try if he has the time.
