Oh DD is a Evo3 16g car. Ran a 12.3 and want to break into 11s next season.

I get the garage at the end of the month, so expect a bunch of pics when the TSi goes in!!

Re: My projects

Thanks for the comments. And yes, I'm on talk too

Cams kinda fell through, so I'm waiting on those. I'm pretty broke from getting my hours cut at work.

But motor will start getting pulled in 6 days!

Re: My projects

For some reason your car makes me want to just start all over. So many little things I like about your setup. I love where you relocated your coolant res. Got any more pics of that?

Re: My projects

Is that a purpley cherry intake manifold?

I'll trade you nice tan leather interior for your black leather.

Re: My projects

Figured I'd bump this thread... I'm getting pretty excited/ nervous. The track opens 30 March for the first test n tune.
Hopefully my this car will be running in time. That is my goal. I have everything I need for it to start and run. Unfortunetly, I'm quitting my job in 2 weeks and don't have enough money for some 272s. So maybe bday money will go to that.
Also, one of the track tires got a large bubble and popped, so a new RA1 is like 200$ as well.
Financial issues are ftl!
So far it's been snowing so bad that I haven't been able to get the car out of the snow and into my new garage . We tried towing it out today, but just tore up the lawn.

But I did get some Evo Springs that I'm going to cut slightly and run the 5zigens. So at least it won't be monster trucking
