my thoughts exactly You never know when you talk with someone say like on the cell phone that they may utilize your idea's.

I think it is good that some are offering a "kit" perfomance engine. More convienent then going to a "performance engine machine shop " and having to have them build one.

This is funny, I am LOL at all of us guessing what Jan is coming up with next. He will tell us soon enough and then more than likely he will have something new that he has been working on. Who knows could be a warp core!! This is why Jan is at the top of his game, if he told everyone what he is doing he might as well be with all the other donkeys. Nothing keeps you more interested than being teased for information!! Keep it up jan, I watch with excitement!!

Pshhh, Jan needs to retune my car with a JCW pulley. Curious what it'd make with the lower charge temps. I made 252 with 9.5 psi

You don't have the w2a setup on your car do you? I know you have the motor but i believe the w2a makes a huge difference.

I'm running a stock IC. Not even Jan has so far convinced me that you need a new IC on these cars. The GP for what it is is one of the best IC's available for the MCS in my opinion.

You make very good power on stock I/C . What IATs do you normally see on freeway drving? i.e 10-12 degC above ambient?

With the GP I/C I see 8-10degC above ambient
