What???!!! An LO3?

Was visiting the ballet the other night (that's what the boys and me call our favorite Gentleman's Club. You know, the performing arts) and pulled out on the road to leave and romped on the gas. Went almost no where and left a plume of tire smoke behind me as I sat there and did nothing but spin the tires.

Ahhhh, power. It feels kinda good.

And despite the amount of rain we have had lately, the road was bone dry!!!

The tuning went good. Jon came out to Phoenix and showed me a few thing and got a good tune going on the purple beast.

As far as the final numbers, we are planning a dyno day here in PHX around the end of March. I might try to make it out to a track before then. But so far the only number I have are the last ones from the old chip. And that was 157 rwhp. But the fuel tables and spark tables were way off. JP fixed all of that.

I'll post the dyno or track numbers when I get them.

Don't worry Jon, I'll do ya proud!!

I can't wait to see the final results. You should take another poll in this thread on your projected output. I say 210 hp and 330tq.

Bill, I want video of the 1/4 mile run. Pictures will suffice.
I think that little 305 now has a commanding presence.

Drag strip runs in march, you make me sick I got to drive my car last week, but the salt on the roads make about useless at any speed less than 50 mph.
