The hood is definitely functional but not to the point where the water temp gauge will tell.
true also i was ******** on a ls1 miata the other week at the track who insisted that i was already supercharge... but more power is always more power

i was looking at the hood for getting ride of heat in between run not really during. id hope stillen or someone elses front bumper to do all the cooling mid run. im guess the brake ducts were a success?

when do you have your next track day? interested in how low temps you can keep temps even at high rpms

Nice recovery

What's your long-term take on those Stance coilovers so far? They're looking pretty good to me right now on price/features, probably will install them (or something similar) this winter.

I love them. They well exceed my expections. I would purchase again. The springs are above most all others and thats the turning point for me.

Not sure how I missed this sorry about the boo boo! You held it straight for soooooo long! Did the wall stick out some more there? Also wtf did you hit on the tarmac that made it whip out so quick?

The new look is awesome! Glad your back at it.

That's the plan. I'm going to push it far. Anything under half a tank is a win for us. I have a lot going on this weekend but I'll stay up all night to get this in and start testing.

Super big props to Charles or Phunk as you know him for getting this out. He's definitely a super busy guy.

Yea Im more than confident this product will work easily to 1/4 of a tank. But I don't plan to run it less than that for I always want to make sure there's plenty fuel to keep the fuel pumps cool.
