My first 3 runs were between 16.3 and 16.4. It was about 10* cooler on my last run and I iced my intake trying to get to 15's, but it just wasn't happening.

I decided after my first run though that 4.44's are in my near future, along with a little special project I've been planning since I can work on my car here at school
Are you located in Pittsburg, or Vermont?
Di and I will be in The Burg this Saturday.
