I dont know MTA, but I know Jon Lagler. If you brought the car to Jon, it would have been done by now and it would have been done right .. . if you do serious work to your car again, it would be worth the trouble to bring it up to PA to have him do the modications. I will vouch for Jon as being the ...

Looks like a cool swap.

As for suggestions, I would switch from the supercharger to a turbo. But thats me.

Have any pictures of the subframe connectors?

ON a car that is tuned to teh raged edge, I dont think dual wastegates would be a bad idea. I thought about this a while back, I was thinking of adding a second Deltagate to my setup so I wont have this problem.

First, it is flowing opposite the direction of the exhaust in the manifold. second, it really should be in the middle of the 3 tubes instead of off to one side. Rational or not, in my mind it makes more difference in the 6 cyl version then the 4. Those outside two tubes arent going to get wastegated...

At first I didnt like the new format with the daytona prototype class. . . but I think im going to change my mind since they have allowed half a dozen constructors. http://www.get-fast.net/gallery/rolex05/3265.jpg http://www.get-fast.net/gallery/rolex05/3279.jpg http://www.get-fast.net/gallery/rolex...

Re: Dakar

If it was economically feasible, Id take you up on that. Its on my list of things to do. Ill be out there eventually. Am I the only one that has odd fantasies about bringing a lifted fiero out to Africa? I've got an '85 GT rally car I'll sell you. I'll even crew for you if you'll get me there.

It is poor placement of the wastegate on the manifold.

I will get my crayons out or maybe just repost some pictures from FieroXs website later today.

Do you mean poor wastegate placement, or are there other factors?

I think Bryce got the light weight pressure plate option from spec and it was just a couple of *speed holes*.

Dunno about the clutch itself.
