I dunno... While it wasnt fruitless, i dont think I would have followed the same path.... I'd have to see dyno charts that show its a signifigant gain on a stock T25...
In the past I can remember Scott talkign to a guy with a s15 setup about the greddy manifold, and saying that it probabally wasnt worth it because it was just moving the powerband higher into the rev range, not really providing much of a bonus.
My dollars would have been saved and spent on a romtune which ni my belief would have provided equal or greater gains and safety than the football + safc... then later on do an S15 turbine and decide at THAT point if I wanted to go the route of the football..

You lie, the wheels are what made it faster.
I am with Slash on wanting to see any dyno charts. Exhaust, boost upgrade and a decent intake filter are what made the real kick in the pants difference, not the intake manifold. All short runner intake manifolds do is decrease low end torque and add high end HP. But hey, whatever makes you happy.

well you see, when you take away torque down low, obviously the car will pull harder up top because its not pulling as hard down low. hehehehe

hey i know, lets just be happy that someone is actually DOING something with their SR instead of just "having" one.
we can all pick and choose on what we want to do till we're blue in the face.
im glad it runs great! cant wait to do more to it!
