    JJ its important for the A2A build to have feedback as far as the tunning aspect goes. If you could post on the corral and here how the car drives with the A2A and how hard it was to tune. Maybe a comparison from what it felt like stock to A2A from a drive ability stand point as well.

    Cracked up......Well in the end the added power from the additional 3 psi pushed the block past its limits.
