It's going on this weekend and then it's off to orlando and have Brian Herron put it on the dyno. You should see pics saturday night or sometime sunday. ;) You are more than welcome to come by and say hi when I get up there :) Forgot, I'm using stock TB for now until I can talk to Victor @ Spinning Wheels and try to work out a deal.

When are coming up for the dyno? Would like to stop by and watch. What does XR7 Dave suggest for a TB on these?

He told me that a stock one will be fine but I'm gonna get a 75mm.
Comming up as soon as Brian says he has room. I'll let everyone know as soon as I do.

That looks like a do-it-yourself-all-in-one 13 second kit. ;)

All future pics and dyno chart after install will be posted in the "Performance" section of the members only forum. That doesn't mean we can't talk about it here in the FL Chapter though just want more members active in the members only forums. Glad to see things picking up there. :)

:eek: :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Purdy!!!! ;)
so how does the top match up to the powder AR used on that top? definately can't wait to see the numbers from that on your SC. don't think it would be right to run that setup with a stock TB, that's just not right....
Let us know when you are heading our way Jake and we'll have to meet up to drool on your new toy! :cool:

Tell Jake that the new top went out this morning as planned. He should hear something this afternoon, as long as it wasn't confiscated at the airport! Would really suck if someone at security needed the same part!! :D

Hey Greg the color matches up perfect but Dave told me I need a raised top so I bought one from irar and it's gonna need a powdercoating. It's a brand new MP raised top. I'll be sending you an e-mail on when I can get you to do it.


Kurt K- I hope to bump you out down here, next is 75mm tb then a set of UD's then maybe ported heads and cam. Don't be surprised to see e-mails from me. :D

irar- The top is awesome, now that's fast shipping. You didn't have to fly your wife all the way down here from NY to hand deliver it. :eek: :p

Rick I'm not sure on when I"ll be there but I'll let you know, would like to see ya again haven't seen you since the boat trip.

Sure I did. How else can I keep my car looking good. She gets to see her folks, and I get to keep "some" of the money!! :D

Actually, the trip was planned for a few weeks now. You're timing, and sense of geography just happened to be perfect!

Hi Jake I was just crusing the forum and saw that beautiful AR Its awesome :rolleyes: :cool: :D I have to have one!!! Then maybe not at this time, because I'm working on so many new things I do not want to hock the house!!! This get's expensive... but I love to do it, and help where I can...Talk to me or call me. I will help you anyway I can...
I know Brian Herron He is very smart and a real good person...I like him very much and have had some good communications with him... I hope he likes me aswell as I like and believe in him!!! also David Dalke is someone I think is also very good and I'm working with him on having a Dyno event for two to three days down here in Florida. I need to find about 10 people 15 would be even better... that Want to have their cars tuned and engines working RIGHT.If your engine is not tuneable because something is not working properly or running on all six and everything is 95% good we can do a car per hour to hour and a half...If the person that has a car running rough... I carry the parts to correct any problems within reason...I will fly David to Florida and we can all find a place to have as many cars that want tuning done for
a very reasonable price. David and Brian Herron are well aquainted!!! I plan to work with David Dalke in many diffrent aspects. He needs at least a weeks notice... so anyone who cares to get their SC's or XR7 tuned or repaired we can make a week end out of it... I need a dyno or go directly to Brian Herron who I know is very busy, and see where he can have David do it... There is a Dyno in Ocala I can use for a price...I have to ask my nephew who races Sprint cars! and is running first and second places! He also races Modified Stock cars...Well that all I have to say for the moment untill I get some replyies or I start a thread just to address this type of services to our Florida Gang and others if the wish to join us. Get the word out This is all getting to be Interesting. I guess The AR is making its presence earlier than I thought. This is good for some and not good for others...I think you all know who needs to come out with a better or more powerfull blower...Maybe Spinningwheels?Hmmmm... Can convince someone Whos working on somethings and we are just waiting for it to happen? I have a pretty good Idea ;)
Just call me and I will work with you. Give me a heads up! anyway,
All the Best of luck!
Your the top man on the pole.
Victor,Diane and associates........

Greg don't worry about it, I made that deal with you-you didn't take anything from me :) . I might take you up on that powdercoating deal and throw in a 10% pulley and brand new belt. I put the top you made for me on it and it matches perfect! Also the gasket makes everything look soper clean.


Victor I'll get with you on that 75mm TB as soon as I have the money. I'm gonna need to wait till after xmas before I can do anymore spending on myself :D .

JV I'll call you this weekend and tell Jacob happy birthday for me.

Got the AR in and it looks awesome, I will be posting pics in the "Performance" forum later today or tomorrow. I didn't get to start it b/c I broke a part of the mother-board (I guess that's what you call it) called a electrolytic capacitor and had to go to Radio Shack and buy another one. It was my falt :mad: I was trying to hurry b/c I had everything else done and all that was left to do was install the chip and start it up. Oh well, it wouldn't be right if I didn't break something :rolleyes: . I have to wait till monday to find someone to sodder it on. I was very surprised how easy it was to install this kit, I figured for once I better read the instructions first.
