Well every year it seems as though I have a list to check off of upgrades I want to perform on my car for the coming year. Here is what Ive got done so far and what I plan to do.
1. Upgrade cylinder heads and locate boost leak Complete!
2. Mark 8 interior upgrade Started
3. Nitrous Install with bottle heater, pressure switch and purge. All but the relay and pressure switch wired for 75 shot
4. Complete custom stereo install upgrade. Parts ordered
I completed the first task today and got the engine put back together. The new cylinder heads flow 228 intake 190 exhaust which is a bit better than the heads that where on the car. It finally made over 400 hp but I feel it is capable of more. I also located the source of the boost leak that was holding boost on the car at just at 19 psi with the autorotor. It appears as though this leak has been there for a while but I don't know exactly how long. I plan to drive the car tomorrow and Tuesday if the weather permits.
