    I love independent adjustable fuel pressure on each bank. Boy Howdy can juice it up when wanted to make "paper numbers"
    This one is a 348 have them on the 355 also

    I think I got it from Ultimate Pedals maybe 10-12 years ago. Not sure if they are in business. Pedal can be rotated, moved left or right depending on your foot size and heal and toe technique. Like the idea of adjustable fuel pressure. Do have a picture of them on the 355?

    Bob, hope you are well. Do you still come out to Santa Barbara? We moved C&C off of Coast Village Road several years ago and now we are at the La Cumbre Mall.

    Hi Greg,

    We sold our house in Santa Barbara two years ago, big mistake. I still come out 2-3 times a year. Still have the 355?

    The somewhat wider throttle pedal allows a driver to keep their heel on the accelerator and toe on the brake pedal simultaneously. https://drivingfast.net/heel-toe-shifting/

    You can easily keep the ball of you foot on the brake and roll your foot over to the throttle for heel and toe. Easier than with the stop accelerator pedal

    Yours looks great Bob! I will have to do something with engine management on mine as well.

    Carbon front/rear bumpers
    Removed trunk liner and wiper arms/motor
    Air box heat shielding
    Carbon seats from a 550, solid mounted/no sliders
    Non-airbag wheel/removed passenger airbag and under dash supports.
    Test pipes, y-pipe and Capristo.
    Anti-gravity lithium battery.
    Titanium wheel bolts

    2,980lbs, 340rwhp/250rwtq 12.40 @116.83 1/4 mile.

    Jim, love it. There is so much more potential in these cars as far as braking, handling and some added power. Makes them that much more fun to drive. The computer tune really helped the throttle response midrange. I would love to do Motec but expensive. How much weight did you remove?

    Yes motec is pricey for sure. I'm leaning towards Haltech. They seem to be well liked and have a ton of features.

    Total weight removed from my car was 219lbs. I'm going to put her on a diet again :D

    I have Haltech on a Pantera that I had fuel injection on and it worked well. Your quarter mile times were close as the 96 Viper Coupe I had so that's really good . These cars are not slow when you keep the rpms up

    No, sold it and bought a 2003 360 Spider. I know, that screams mid-life crisis. But I love it!
