If I dont pop the hood no one thinks I have anything anyways because I made my exhaust so quiet and my turbo cam is tuned so there is no lope. I still have the spray hooked up I just have not used it since I have not forged the engine yet. I can make one pass but I have to lift after the 1000ft or I will go through to quick.

the coils are now hidden by the two piece ABEAR valve covers. Bottom half is the valve cover, and the top cover just hides the coil packs, etc.

Take it to the track!!!!! Run the damn thing and get you a time slip. You might get asked to quit running till you get your gear, but atleast you aren't speculating and you'll have a slip to back up your HP/TQ numbers.
