Nice, so what did you run? And yes, you should be able to handle a 150shot as long as your timing and fuel system is setup right.

good to see something different , and yes as above the 150 shot should be good as well, unless its not a built motor for such a thing, as double a 12a hp figure buy a hit of a button could end in tears

Very nice man. So your setup is very close to mine other than your on the juice and I'm not. I'm running a Weber IDA but other than that our setups are very similar. I'm sure you are already planning this but move your battery to the trunk and shed as much weight as you can. Strip that sucker, this aint no car show. hehe. Your friends corolla is very close to the same color as my car. I like it. What are his times down the track and is he on the juice too? Oh and I hear you on the old lady and kid. I'm in the same boat brother.
