Its running great! The car put down 560 rwhp 570 rwtq @ 9psi with methanol injection thanks to the tuning by FRCTom. I'm real happy with the overall outcome and the best part of it all I did all of the installation of everything myself. :thumbsup:

Down side to all this is the clutch does not like all that power so it will slip a little at about 4500rpm in third gear. I just ordered an new Textralia Exo-Skel Twin Disk which will be here this coming week. I'm going to install it next Saturday. That will fix any slippage issues for sure.

Your more than welcome to stop by the warehouse any time and check it out in person, were right off of 118th ave.

The wheels are the CCW 505A fully polished. The fronts are 19x10 and the rears are 19x11.5 wrapped in Nitto Invo tires. The tread pattern is pretty wicked on them and the car really puts the power down to the road. I opted for the 19" rears instead of the 20" as no tire company currently puts out a decent gripping tire and with the STS kit the rear of the car would just have broke loose.

I lowered the car down on the factory bolts, the fronts are maxed out and the rear I had to trim a little off of the rubber bushings and reinstalled the factory bolts. The car rides just as good when it was at stock height and handles great. :thumbsup:

We're located at 3161 118th Ave right next to the on ramp for 275 to get to Tampa. We supply many dealerships as we have 3 route trucks which deliver and we also cater to mobile detailers at our warehouse as well as walk in customers. We sell all of our products at warehouse prices even to the public. Our website should be up this week.

Very nice. Two comments, get that STS Sticker off the back window :banghead: thats #1 and then take the Twin Turbo lettering off the hood :thumbsdown: thats #2 and you have got yourself a fine machine. No need to let others know what you got under the hood, they can find that out for themselves later. Very nice interior too excellent job :thumbsup:
 
Did you wash the inside of the wheels??
What?.. Am I the only one here who washes the insides of the wheels?
I'm a detail freak ^_^
PS, I wash the underside of the car as well, My Cutlass is so fresh and so clean!
 
I wash the inside of the wheels every once in a while. Use Flash's Brown Royal and it does a heck of a job getting the brake dust out of there. :thumbsup:
