SOON TO BE BAPTIZED BY THE JESUS HEAD

I'm having the RMW head, header, exhaust, portmatched intake manifold and arp head studs installed on monday at Helix. I driving up to philly monday morning and dropping Ripper off, staying at a hotel and picking Him up the next day. I will be dynoing at the same place(new german performance) I've dyno'd every step of this build. They tune VW/Audi and are in eurotuner alot. The last time I was there Ripper put down 186.6whp & 166.3 tq with these mods

15%
hdi intake
dfic
m7 catback

I can't wait to feel what these parts do for Ripper

There's a lot of willing beta testers it seems. I wonder what the total miles on Jesus is now?

I've put 9000 or so on mine now. Includes 2 track days, plenty of stop and go city traffic (ugh) and lots of sprited motoring. Nary a bobble.

I think he means the place he is going to get a dyno run uses a dyno jet, we still use our trusty Mustang dyno

Congratulations!!!

I took the plunge to become the first to us the Jesus head. It exceeded my expectation and turned me into a power junkie for sure . Be careful the HP bug doesn't get you.

Longboard

Thanks for the linky. I know this guy and his car, we use the same garage. I'll be sure to give him a shout.
