hmmm if you tune to maximise when you spray, what will happen if you gun it without spraying?
In my head, if you tune it one way, its gonna be totally off when you don't spray?
Plz enlight me.

those seats look sweet, my mom has been pushing me to buy seats cause she hates mine, I'm curious to know what the Takata belts would look like, you don't normally see them with domestic cars.

Yep, meth lowers your AFR by about 1.3-1.5 as far as I've seen, so a car tuned to be at 12.0 will be at 10.7. If I tune (like I have) to target 11.8, and run out of meth, the AFR will jump to almost or at 13s, and also the spark timing may be advanced too much for normal fuel and cause detonation. So you just make sure you have enough in the tank.

how much did those seats run? ... for the pair?

you could always replace the assemblies with the seatbelt assemblies out of a black-interior Grand Am..... they're identical, except black.

That's what it's there for, it's definitely not a cup holder. What cup fits there?!
Bought the carbon fiber kit off a member on here. Not sure where you can still get it.

It's a pressure switch. I have it set to engage on at 4 PSI.

its advertised as either the ash tray holder or an auxiliary cup holder in the "get to know your car" manual supplement. i found that its good for holding taller cups like bottled mtn dew or bottled water so its not in my way by the shifter.

Looks nice! I think the green harnesses will look great. There is a point when everything gets too matchy. Your progress is coming along nicely, hopefully I can get going on mine soon now that my career is started. Just need the fiance to approve as soon as I get home from OKC in two weeks.
