I don't know where you are located but they have 2 dealers listed in Tulsa. As far as I know all there dealers are mobile.

Ummmm seal in the master cylinder going bad maybe? I had a similar issue where when it was hotter outside the master cylinder would let fluid by and make the pedal start to sink to the floor.

Check under the master cylinder where it bolts up to the booster. If you get fluid on your finger...the mc is going out.

I'll have to check that out when I get a chance. I guess if its bad, I might as well put that QSD booster delete plate to use and get a wilwood MC. Thanks for the heads up. I'll report back whenever I get a chance.

Hey guys whats up? I got a friend of mine whos claiming that if you throw on a block gaurd and better bolts on the rods on a b18c5 it can handle up to a 100 shot of wet nitrous ,with stock internals and an aem ecu . I kind of doubt it , the only words that come to my mind is B18c5 KABOOOM !!what do you guys think?maybe I can talk him out of it,Unless if its possible..

You could do that without the rod bolts and block guard. 100 shot direct isn't that bad.

It's just like turboing a stock motor. The better the tune and the less you rail on it, the better the chances are of the motor not blowing the hell up.

I have a friend that sprays a dry 50 shot on his stock GSR/poorman's ITR pretty regularly on a chipped ECU and no tuning for it. His motor has been just fine after two full bottles of spraying and should be even better once it is tuned on S300 for nitrous.

"I need nawwzz" lol a 75 shot would be pretty fun on a c5 a performer x intake mani would be good for that setup its already tapped for the jets but just like everyone else said make sure its tuned safe for the bottle u should be fine, im gonna run 100 shot on top of my motor when she gets put together nd tuned on s300

This thread just depresses me now lol...

love the brake set up thed


Still can't find a decent EP around here. All have too many issues or too many miles

I thought I found a steal of an 04 with 82k on it for $6000, but it has a salvage title due to an engine replacement.. Would you guys even consider something with a salvage?

Nothing exciting, same motor is going back in. Found a problem with it when working on it last weekend so it had to go back to the builder, was easier to just pull it out haha. Just taking the opportunity to clean a few things up while its out.

Love your dash btw, real clean setup
