Well its 4 in the morning and I'm tired, cranky, annoyed and have to go to work at 8 in the morning. We finished up the install, had a few problems with the ECU that were still trying to work out. Even Randy came by to help and stayed with all night to work on it. But in the end...



All I can say for now is WOW!!! My car is fast!!! The Vortech has a LOUD whistle, louder than Comptech! Also, every time you turn the key to the on position, you can hear the liquid flowing through the coolers, sounds very cool!

As for the road, I really couldn't tell. It was raining and my 18s spun in every gear. But I can definitely feel the boost.

We still have a few more kinks to work out in the next few days to get everything running correctly. Once we figure everything out we will post what we figure out.

SLEEP

sounds like vortech has some serious QA problems not sending out the right parts and missing manuals... its not that hard to have a checklist when u pack up these kits
