Project V6 Firebird (lots of pics)

Nice deal on the hood. It'll look slick fixed up.

Car sounds awesome

Did some data logging today. Car needed more fuel on the trims, so I adjusted that and will see what it does tomorrow. Open headers + turndown extensions right below your seat == threshold damage. And I haven't even gone WOT nor tapped redline yet

Damn.

So you're doing all the tuning yourself? Or are you going to get the help of a speed shop with a dyno?

Sweet man, can't wait to see some #'s

3.8 powah!

I love it

You should check out FullThrottleV6.com. I'm surprised you never found that site. People will love your T/A there. Then again, who wouldn't love a boosted 3.8?

Which reminds me, I'm bumping my Formula Holden thread, you'll love it.

Street tuning myself, then it is on to the dyno day on May 1st. I've got HPTuners and my trusty laptop to get it all done.

Damn, I need some tools like that.

Add me to the "I'm in ur neighborhoodz blinding ur kidz" membership list please.

Installed the 8000K HID conversion from 89Tang on ls1tech, installed them in less than 15 minutes and nice and bright. Not fun adjusting something that bright when you have a migraine

Gotta go drive in the morning and adjust them and get some impressions and take pics. Those things lit up my garage just as well as my Mazda3 w/ those Xenon projectors.

Sweet. HID's FTW.

[Ringo64]

WOW! those look really blue! but looks good and I'm sure is awesome at night!

[Sam]

Love HID's, I can't wait to get another set.

Car is headed to a trans shop on tuesday for a performance rebuild.

NOICE!!!

Zing. I'd love to rebuild my 4T45E trans. Bad enough they don't like more than +250HP.

Not going to swap for a T-5 I guess then, huh?

[markpetersonii]

Nice HIDs!

T5 no. Those don't like power at all, and I can be known to be a bit agressive lol! I will be saving up and building up a parts pile for a T56 swap though.

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Mmmm, T-56...

Well, a built 4L60E can handle some abuse then. I bet you're eager to unleash that badboy on the dyno and 1/4.

[Ghost]

wow, seems like im missing a bit here. lights look great. oooh, i wanna see this on the dyno.

[Killiger2009]

ghost he has it on a dyno on youtube...and did u get your dyno tune u said may 1st and its the 6th

[Ghost]

wheres the video?? and did I say i was getting a tune? is that a question to me Killiger2009?

[WarShrike]

Car decided to burn through a plug wire, decided it was time to get the cut-to-fit wires to route them properly. Added boot protectors as well, so things should be golden.

Waiting on some LS6 injectors to get cleaned and flow matched, should cure my NA fueling ailments. Other little projects will go on as time progresses. Still trying to get the car nailed down on the tune, and will do WOT tuning after the injectors get in.

[WarShrike]

HID fogs installed to compliment the HID lowbeams I'd purchased a while back. Now to address those drl's...
