Having driven both, back-to-back no less, I'm happy I made the choice of boosting my car vs getting a GT350. No doubt the GT350 is a very special car, but you make a few concessions when you go that route. Road walk was pretty bad, and to be expected with such wide front tires. The exhaust was...

I have to say that I had a similar experience as Greek. Alex has been beyond helpful and very responsive to any issues or concerns I've had. Turn around time for tune updates has been VERY reasonable. I put the car on the dyno with an early in tune revision process and it made 557/483. That's...

Cant hurt to try!

TruU....you must have been trying real hard to blow the tires away on your test drive (or it was cold or a terrible surface). My car, in stock form, had no problems hooking from a very slow roll in first. Quick slip of the clutch, WOT and it was away. I have two dislikes with the PP: wheels...

Do yourself a favor and be sure to order that install bolt before you begin. I know you said you plan to, but you probably won't be able to find one local (Fastenal even had to order one in). I ended up having to use alternate install tactics. That was the most nerve-wracking part of the...

Mine is a daily driver and my two girls have Recaro seats (so we all get Recaros). I have always been overly anal with my car. For example, teaching people how to close the doors properly so they don't touch the paint and finger stains on it. That being said, kids will be kids. I'll let them...

Wow, long block...that almost seems like a bargain. I would've thought it was higher.

I haven't priced compared so I don't know what the difference is. I get the DD thing though. That's what mine is. Hence why I won't go E85 or anything crazy.

Might be worth looking into a built short block. May be a similar price and then you can turn it up and worry less. I'm really interested in the tear down because this has the potential to be the first "public" failure of the crank (timing) gear. At least that I've seen. Seems like OPG failures...

Sub'd for more info. Good luck, OP.

I see what you did there....haha

Datalogging is coming along quite nicely. Hope to have some pointless bench racing numbers early next week.

As with any mod there are hiccups. The number one rule is be patient and know that they'll get you taken care of. You can tell the tune isn't 100% perfect. This is to be expected with the base tune. Does the car run and drive pretty well? Absolutely. Is it perfect? No. There is minor surging...

VMP sent a revised tune this morning and got me on the road. Drives pretty well. Makes good power. A few datalogs have been sent. Dyno next week. I just want to say I'm very pleased with their customer service. Alex was very quick to respond this morning and got me taken care of quick. Good...

No, you misunderstood. All the install kinks were fixed prior to the tune issue. The car idles but will not rev. I'm sure a quick phone call to VMP will take care of it in the morning. Their customer service has been outstanding thus far.

All the little kinks from the install have been worked out. The car idles like a champ. Too bad I can't go drive the thing!

Just wrapped up the install on my Gen II-R. Kit is a Stage 2 with 56# injectors and twin 60mm throttle body. We started the car and it idles great but will not rev. From idle, in neutral, if you press the throttle to WOT, it will only rev from 800 to 1100. We've verified the throttle body is...

Any snags or "I wish I woulda knowns" you've come across so far?

Awesome. It's going to be quite the weekend....OPG, CG and VMP Gen II-R. I can't wait.

Gotcha. I just saw the "turn xx*" and just assumed. Just making sure all my ducks are in a row for next weekends install. Thanks for the quick reply!
