Fabricated it out of fiberglass. Used cardboard for the template and layed it out on plexiglass in three pieces. It was done at about three sheets thickness, which resulted light weight, but probably too thin, as it cracked and broke in several places. May do another, not sure.

I hit just over 150 mph once (racing a mustang on the highway), but as everyone else said, the speedo may not be that accurate.

There is a "downside" to the superchip: 94-octane fuel only after... Gasoline is more expensive up here...

Really i wasn't aware of any certain grade of fuel that had to be used. I would put 93 but where on earth do you get 94 i have seen 93 100(airport) then 110 111 112 drag strip
that would suck to have to go to a airport to fill up or something
is the 94 octane true?
