In about 80 miles, or when I have the time, which ever comes last. :D

Sure, but then I'll come back and get it to pull a Volvo Penta 4.3 out of my boat if it's shot. :D That's the next project, then the Lotus.....

It's going to be an animal. With Shane's tune from 4-5 years ago on wastegate pressure and about 7 miles on it, it starts spooling instantly from a highway roll in 5th. Can't wait to get it tuned with this set up, should be pretty crazy.

Man, I'm absolutely loving this thing. All of the sudden the 100+ hours I just put into it seems all worth it. AC blows cold, everything works perfect and it feels like it wants to break the tires loose at any speed just barely getting into boost. 2.4's and stock frame turbos are lots of fun.

mmm. I'd love one of those.

Gave it the proper stance last night. It's by far the easiest spring install I've ever done. Took a little over an hour with air tools, no spring compressor needed. Rides pretty decent as well.https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-f...0/IMG_5515.JPG

What springs?

Time to get your own methinks :) I need to clean my garage and get rid of some stuff, but when I do, there'll be room for it again!

Used Teins. Got a deal I couldn't pass up. It just looked strange at stock levels, but I knew that ahead of time. I also got rid of those stupid canards, I hate those things.

Actually, I'll be happy to have it out of my garage, I need to do a lot of cleaning now that I've only got one semi non-running car in the garage. Let me know when you want it back.

I'm planning on CnC tomorrow morning, if I can get the kids out of bed. The wife is out of town for the weekend. Boo.

Older FP Red. Great spool so far, no idea what it'll make, probably 440'ish DJ on pump. I do need to convert to E85 after I get some break-in miles on it, 10.5:1 pistons are just begging for octane and boost.
