what type of management do you plan on running

 

a good clutch i know you plan to put some power down :-D

 

boost gauge ,egt gauge (wideband o2 :D )

 

relays

 

better wiper motors

 

fuel pump ( and fuel cell :D )

 

custom licenses plate :D

 

and then buy a big ass box pack it all up and ship it to me you know so i can make sure it works and stuff :D:D:D:D:D

AH forgot a few things.

I have my Blitz BL boost, oil temp, and oil pressure gauges already..

I have no clue on what EMS to get...

Yeah i was looking into a good clutch but i dont want it to stiff as it will be daily driven in traffic too.

AND YOU WILL BE AMAZED! my wiper motors are damn strong and FAST! i was always told that there weak, maybe i got a ringger!

Im gonna start ordering all my AutoMeter carbon fiber gauges soon. EGT, A/F ratio, fuel level, fuel pressure, water temp, nitrous pressure.

gotta buy headlights too...

i might sound ricey saying this but i want it to look nice while also cooling good.

also what electric fans should i also look into.

remember the car will be daily driven in texas and florida (HOT) and prob in traffic alot too.

http://www.summitracing.com it is for a chevy, it was a long time ago that i got it. So i forget the part # or how much it was. But it was hooked up to my L24 before I did the RB swap so it will work for your L28et. But I think there is two kinds one that the lower tube bends in and is too close to your altenator, and one that dose not bend in that you want.

 

24"x19" rings a bell but ask others first.

It is a Dynomax UltraFlow with a Ricer tip welded on to it. But my trick was to mount the muffler as high up as it could go then weld the tip on. So the tip is low on the exit hole of the muffler. This way the muffler dose not hang out the bottom of the car, like you see on a lot of Z's

how does it sound? deep and not raspy?

i like how it goes with the curve of the back of the car.

would you be willing to say make another one?

i was thinking of the apex-i N1 turbo muffler in Black but i just like the way urs looks.

thanks
