For $550 I can drop my 1/4 mile ET by 1.3 seconds with a 75 shot, which would put me in the low 13's? Where's my wallet... no... must resist...

Here's why this is attractive to me: It's a mere fraction of a s/c system. I love the performance of my MM already but every once in a while I would love to be able to hit a button and really get a shot of adrenaline. Also, the fact there's only about 90 seconds of the fun stuff on tap it would force me to be frugal with it.

Help me out here. Why is this a bad idea? Because, you never know when a CTS-V happens by...

OK, not everyone all at once, lol

They make a kit for carb?

See ZEX's online catalog at:

They list applications for EFI wet and dry systems, as well as 4-BBL plate system.

Info on the 82040 4-BBL plate (100-300 shot) system:

Says it fits all popular square flange 4-barrel intake manifolds... is your's "popular"? You'd probably have to call to see.

I've also seen carb spacers that claim additional tq. Would this provide double benefit?

Hmmm, interesting. I posted the link on the mm.net site also because I don't recall seeing this over there. Thanks.

Not to say this isn't a better animal, but I had a '90 Mitsu Eclispe GSX (wife's car) for about 10 years and the car was too heavy for the turbo. I got owned by just about everything with a V-8... but I loved the AWD. It was teh win on rain or snow... even though it was a ricer car.

My brother had a talon TSi with a grainger valve and a couple other things and it was wicked as hell...

go for it! a 75 shot is tame, and the MM should handle it.

The Eclipse was an automatic. That made it a complete dog. You needed to be able to do a 6000 rpm drop to really get the almost 3000 lb AWD GSX going from a stop. The manuals were one of the quickest cars across the street at the time.

Watch your compression ratio!
