So Where are you all Generally located? I'm in the Roseville/Little Canada area and will be over in Woodbury soon.

Also, I don't know if I've properly introduced myself. I'm Shnifty. Nice to meet you all.

Also, people. Talk me into keeping my RX8. I keep thinking I may end up with a G37S or 335i coupe. I am toying with the idea of selling my Shinka.....It's hard to let go though....

Brilliant Black. I'll keep an eye out for you on 35e and 694.



Oh and Chris, You should test drive the cars and buy what you like the most. Consider that those other cars probably wouldn't turn heads like an RX8 would.

unless of course it is an Nissan R35.. Three in MN I think? a buddy saw one being run on a dyno. 480 stock hp but they said it ran 520hp at wheels..?

also, may or may not be able to finally meet you guys. I have had Jury Duty all week which is killing my gas. plus i have nothing in my car but a CAI... lol at least nothing for another 2 years.

few buddies at Savage Street Machines wants to work on my car. I want to go SuperCharged and they haven't done one yet and would like to, even will give me a discount, as far as i know. They do awesome work! Still hearing mix feelings on Turbo or Supercharged... what do you guys think? SC or TC?

Well Im planning on Turbocharging my 8 next summer. I've been wondering if anyone around here was planning to do it before then and if they'd let me watch.

Do any of us Minnesotans on here even have FI? I know a certain person wants to SC in for years or something

Originally I was planning on SC... still went with forced induction but TC we have such a wide RPM range it suits the engine better.

Although the SC sounds darned sweet, like the Hymee.

There are several FI 8s in MN now.

I suppose that makes sense. I should get to know you guys better so I can have somone to run to if I have problems next summer.


Did the 23rd meet happen? I'd be able to make it if we tried again.

universal procharger kit will run 3 grand or so. You just need to figure out how to mount it and get a management system.
