Hi Guys,

I know a couple of guys on this board (Jed & Jacek). I usually read the posts, but
I have never registered or introduced myself to the rest of the MN DSM-ers here.

My name is Vassil and I live & work in Winona, MN. I am originally from Bulgaria
and moved to MN like 10yrs ago.

My car is 1992 GSX (I got from Steve Hill in bone stock form last November).
Here is the list of current mods:

Removed the AC & Cruise Control (next is the ABS)

There might be something else done to the car, but I cannot remember anymore.
Probably more 90% of the stock parts have been replaced (belts, alternator, etc.)

As soon as everything is broken in I will put in a 3 "downpipe and pay a visit
to Elite and see what kind of power they will be able to squeeze out of it.

The plan for the winter is to get an IRC Racecore and finish the exhaust,
and then get a bigger turbo next year and see what the car can do on the track.

Welcome to the site! Looks like you have quite a bit done to the car, it will be fun to see what you get at Elite for numbers. Keep us posted.

Welcome, awesome ride!

Do you have an information link about the PEP valves by chance?

vassil · 10-23-2003

I am not sure what their homepage is, but I got them though the guys that built
my head. Their Name is EAP (they are out of Chicago). I got them for a very
reasonable price (lower than SI and Ferrea), they are stainless, swirl-polished,
and chrome-stemmed. I really liked them. The one I got from crower originally were just junk. Here are some pics of the valves alone and installed in the head.

If you want EAP's phone let me know...
