With this and a modified LIM(bore increased with custom butterfiles) i'm hopping to inch closer and closer to mid 14's. After hitting the 14 second mark(even if only by .001) i'm very excited to see just how deep into the 14's i can push this 2.5 N/A. I have another drag day Aug 4th, for which i'll be installing my test pipe, it made a big difference on my SE, hoping for similar gains with the SVT. I'm hoping to at least run with the MAX UIM yet this year, other plans for the 2.5 this fall: Modified LIM Head porting on a spare set of heads i have I may considder trying out some drag radials as i've been running all my runs to date on some rock-hard rubber. Possibly tune for A/F and Timing adjustment. I have a Salvage title SVT that i'll be throwing a 3L into with some goodies for fun this winter for my open-track car. So, any plans/predictions\suggestions to help achieve my goals of running with some of the 3L boys with the N/A 2.5? 99 SE V6\5spd - 156 HP\157 TQ 15.166-90.84 Totaled 02/12/06 99 SVT # 1571 - 175 HP\153 TQ 14.999-91.88 Born 3/24/99 Reborn 3/18/06 Pietenpol Racing Technologies project vehicle 90 Festiva L 5spd, Blue(not for long), 103k

Hence me saying 'if you are going all out.' I'm just saying, pete seemed very talkative about them... nearly had me shelling the 1,200 they cost, out.
