Diggin the intercooler fab. Glad you had a good time up at Brainerd too, I didn't spend much time at the drag strip but I've seen a few videos looks like there were some pretty fast times.

Well I have been pretty bad about posting on the forums the past couple years do to school, work, and deployments but I'm still in the 240 game... as well as a few new projects.

Didn't get the car out much last year but I did upgrade the fan setup and got it tuned again since I was limited by my old intercooler. I made 581HP 523ft lbs of torque on 29lbs of boost. Head started to lift a little bit so we stopped there though.

Does anyone know of any stronger headstuds out there then the ones ARP advertises for the KA?? I'm planning on replacing the head gasket and the studs later this month just to make sure no damage was done when the head lifted.

Well i can't say I'm the most active member but i always come back haha

Current update - Didn't drive the car much last year because i lifted the head on the dyno eventually got it taken apart and but a new HG in and some new studs still ARP2000 i think i'm going to start prepping another block with bigger studs for when this motor blows. I set up the launch control finally and have tuning appointment in a couple weeks going to most likely leave it at 550, the head lifted at 580 last time on the dyno.

Picked up some wheels & tires for the drag strip finally!

Nice set up man. Curious do you have ABS Diff? I was told that the Dakato Digital SGI-5 Speedo Convert doesn't work with Non ABS and to go with Dakota Digital GPS-50-2.
