Sooo. Had my first major issue with it after 500 miles. I threw new plugs,wires in and made an intake much longer to get the filter away from heat. This also smoothed out airflow to the MAF. It didn't solve my MAF code which I think is a tune issue, but it did solve the power issue....
I went for my first real "power pull", and blew up the driveshaft. A custom 3" Aluminum driveshaft made for the conversion. Rumuors abounded that a run of these were failing. Mine failed in the first real hard pull. Pulled it back home with my truck and it sits awaiting Vorshlag's response.
Immediate future plans for this car include finishing up the exhaust and sending the ECU back to the tuner to fix the tach readout and MAF hertz code. Longer-term future plans already being worked on (I know I am messed up). I picked up a FAST LS2 102MM intake manifold, and plan on picking up a throttle body, and a set of heads. Between those and my mods already, I hope to pick up a bit more power. Goal is 460-480rwhp. Also throwing on a set of flares to get molded with the body.
The reason behind the flares and the 60-80rwhp jump is to compete in the One Lap of America next year. Jess has stated she really wants to do it, and I figure closer to 500rwhp and more tire would be needed to do an attempt at top 10. No plans on picking up 1st-3rd as $150k+++ GTRs with 1000whp and professional drivers seem to grab it each year, but a class win and top10 finish would be awesome.
