sounds good!
did you let out in the first run?

Looks like you're gonna have to update your sig too.

oh and that track scenery looks pretty damn hard to beat! I've been wanting to go to AK for awhile now but never made it yet...

Ya the first run I let out because of the loss of traction off the line. When you get the chance come on up!

IMO, it's better to have it farther away from the throttle body. Makes on & off idle transitions a little smoother usually.

Good to know, thats one of my next projects will be to relocate the battery to the *edit (drivers side) and install a nice air intake system with an air box going to the passenger side where the current battery is.

That'll help, and look better too. I have some aluminum sheet here at the shop that you might be able to use to fab the airbox, if you're interested. Stop by if you're in Wasilla during the week.

That sounds like a good idea I may or may not need it we will see. If I do come out it wouldn't be till next week as I'm going out of town Thursday down to Ninilchik.
