I sure haven't seen record-breaking gains on my motor. i'm still operating at relatively low boost while getting the bugs worked out. once it is all up to snuff, maybe the parts will show better gains. -------------------- 98 Cobra 83 Notch rolling chassis - fs Posts: 1797 | From: Grass Valley, CA USA | Registered: Jul 2000  |  :
