OH no....not the tag team... lol

Coolant temps are low...probably as a result of being about negative amillion degrees in Colo...Tires are still in one piece....for now haha

feels completely stock and is quieter than i remember...up till about 4000rpms...then it just SCREAMS...

he has the stock plastic UIM? does that have a "fused" pressure response trigger, or is it pot luck when it pops?

Good luck with Dyno and testing! Fingers crossed
