Just like mine!

Wow, great build thread! I love what you've done to it. Everything has been done very tastefully.

Uploaded a couple more Youtube videos which will give more of an idea of what my setup sounds like.

Wrapped my intakes today... not sure how I feel about it.

Did you wrap with pipes still on the car?

No took them off and sat at kitchen table. Was DEI wrap but was much harder to work with than I expected.

Got a nice surprise in the mail today. Assuming this comes with the Braum Alpha X seats but they were out of stock when ordered. A nicely packaged leatherette care kit with a couple of other goodies in it!

Maintenance time. Oil change, air filters cleaned, and poly bushing lubrication.

In addition to the Nismo stripe on the side mirrors, added the one to the front bumper while I had it removed.

Been a long wait, ordered these from Z1 on Black Friday, but my Daytona Throttle Bodies came in today. Scheduled to go on the rollers at Dynosty on 3/24/20. Last time put down 351whp in the summer heat/humidity (92 degrees/90%humidity). Planning to do a couple pulls when I get there, then swap out the throttle bodies and go at it again to see if there are any gains to be had. I’m not expecting much from the throttle body swap if anything, more so from the more favorable climate conditions. I’d really like to get to 360whp which on pump 93 would be the highest number I’ve seen on a stock block motor bolted.

[johnnydrama]

Dynosty again at 8am tomorrow for some pulls/re-tune with the new throttle bodies installed. Anxious to see what it does in 50 degree low humidity vs. 90 degree high humidity. Stay tuned!

Unfortunately made a little less than last time. Down to 349 from 351whp and 266 from 271wtq.

Had the roof Carbon Fiber wrapped. Had thought about doing this for a long time as I really like the look. However I had never seen a vinyl Carbon that looked realistic enough to pull the trigger. The guy that did my mirrors reached out when he got his hands on this, it wasn’t cheap but it looks great.
