Default Mod choices....

Just to shed some more light.
We got the Boss in October of 2013, I researched every possible power adder for months. I also called every shop I could find in Texas. Alot of research went into my decision of what to do to the car.
One of the main goals was to keep the car very streetable and where it would run on 93 octane fuel. My wife and I love driving the car.
I talked to Clint several times before we even committed to them to mod our Boss. (I'm sure he thought I was just another tire kicker, at first).
Well, after we got the mods done I got curious of what the car would run. You know what happens next.... It became an addiction, I became fixated on beating a couple of cars and a number that I wanted to get my car down to. That's why we went the direction we did. I'm sure had I told Clint up front that it was going to be a track car we would have looked at other options that might have been more suitable.
Me personally, I like the procharger, the car drives and handles great, I like the power curve and how it comes on. We have made several trips from Abilene to McKinney (250 miles approx) and it's a blast.....
Anyway, didn't mean to get off topic, just wanted to make it clear why we went the direction we did. And I'm sure the car will run better once the temps cool down.....
But by the time it cools down archery season will be here so the car will probably feel neglected for awhile..... lol.
