If your ever going to head down to the south shore let me know. I'll let you take mine around for a spin.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the positive feedback. I think I'm gonna keep the SS, I do like the way it feels, what I might do is change the shifter for something I can hold better. My razo *** is very very nice but doesnt provide the best for grip.

I dunno, might have been the feedback on the dyno that made me misshift, that or nervousness hehe. The first car to dyno was my friends Eclipse GST, he put down a mere 394WHP, the next guy a Civic Si put down 113 to the wheels, next a POS auto n\t eclipse put down 106WHP (LOL!), I knew that I could get higher numbers than the last 2 but I was still a bit nervous hehe. Oh and so you guys know a stock Auto Mustang MACH1 puts down 267whp from a claimed 305 flyweel HP, a Hundai elantra (LOLx2) auto with a fart can puts down 127WHP. After that I got bored and left to post here.

what year si was that??? a 94 si hatch with a d16z6??? becouse i hope that wasnt a 99 b16 or else that would be sad lol get a compretion check done on that

but nice number on the gst must be a fun highway car

i belive that was the car rocking back and the tire hitting the stationary platform... dont hold me to it though... what was with bouncing it off the rev limiter thru every gear?

You have a problem with the install. Should be spring loaded to stay in line 3rd and fourth. I pull down 3rd to 4th with my pinky to shift 3 to 4. I also have the twm stage 2.
