You guys really think 130 traps? I think you guys may be off a bit. Seems like a big jump? My car made 619 and best I trapped was 124 maybe 125. Have you thought of keeping the stock tubes through the radiator? I kept mine because I didnt think I could replicate the contours of the factory.

I am using 2 45 degree pieces off the radiator is 3.5" to4" 45 the 4" 45 to level off straight on driver side. See pics above for passenger's side. You should be seeing more mph that.

Don't forget, he also added Catless downpipes WITH his cai. And he dyno tuned it to compensate for the new mods, so 130mph is not out of the question. Trunk res for $300 is a must at this point

You guys are such a bad influence!!!!! I guess we will see what kind of traps it has this winter. I sent the Dyno graph to Eurocharged since I really had no idea what to expect, with the tune based on the existing mods. Based on the power and A/F they were extremely impressed. So that was the SAME tune since last September when it dyno'ed 562whp and it will stay for now. I know dynos can be different, it was cooler for the latest numbers, but the gains are still significant. I will create a new thread once the intake is complete.

Edit: What were/are your mods? Was/is it ECU & race gas only? Only track data I could find on your 65 was this.. Is this the run you trapped 124 in?

Yes correct. Only thing I have added was LSD and cold air intake. My 60's where always 3 thenth slower so I can see the ET difference but I guess I dont expect my car to trap 6 mph faster. I will be so happy if it does though.
