I was wondering who, what, and were if you anyone has been fast on the stocker (which I know there is a few of you), and who has went to a sheet metal one, and maybe picked up something.

I know you sometimes have to retune to change up a part like that, but some good info would be great.

Reason for this post is, well, im just curious. It would be great to see give or take what helps, and what doesnt.

Im running the old style jmf sheet metal on my car. My car has never been on the dyno, but so far my best pass on street tires/pump gas 25psi was 10.95@134. I wanna acually get back to the track and try to go faster, which im sure I could since my 60 foot was a 1.89 LOL. But im also going to swap out to a factory intake manifold after that day, and go back to see what changes. I mean it would be nice to try all the different ones, but I dont have access. This will be on 2.5 IC pipes, and a stock throttle body. Im also gonna keep record of any air fuel/timing changes I make between the 2

I want to see how boost comes on (gt4294) were or if it falls off which I doubt will be much. I want to play around since its fun to experiment. I guess when the car stays together I feel like I should play around with stuff.

Well hope some people might be interested in this. I sure am. Maybe some info will be gained, maybe nothing. Sucks race seans almost over, but when it opens up, ill be at the track getting booted again haha!
