Yea I got the meth kit, did the dyno put down 181Whp smoking the entire time. Apparently I had to much oil from my most recent change (I had a friends shop do it). I don't know if it hurt my numbers but my car has 63K on it so I wasn't hurt by it. If anyone wants to come to Enzo's shop I'll be there for the next 5 days (we should be done by then). But not this Friday, Saturday and Sunday (shop is closed) after that till completion. If you guys want I can set up a dyno day at his shop? Enzo's got a brand new 4 wheel dyno coming (secret don't tell anyone) we could help him learn it!

Note to everyone... do not go out and drift.... but if you do have friends who "accidentally stall" in the middle of the road after you pass them

just texted you. I was at a house party last night and we all got snowed in, it was sweet. Lets try and go out tomorrow evening?? The back roads will all have snow on them for days, the plowing out here is terrible

I've been drifting around all afternoon, lots of fun. Any big parking lots though??? I mostly just do slower speed stuff around town, but it would sick to do like a 60mph drift across a big lot....


let me know....

Floyd Bennett Field. Abandoned air strip. I doubt you guys want to drive all the way to Belt Parkway though.

I had fun with it all weekend to be honest. Traction is great, the only problem is ground clearance in more than about 4 or 5 inches of compacted snow. Up to about 6 or 7 inches of powder is no problem, just involves a little snowplowing on the front lip....

I'm getting my turbo kit tomorrow, without the injectors and vacuum lines. I don't have to worry about that for about a day or two. Then I'll need them so now I only hope to get it in the morning to get a day out of it with the install.

sounds like you're rushing dude... i think you should wait till you have everything and put it all in at the same time.

KLEPTO! you're still alive? hahahaha

Rushing, no way! I've just had my car all torn down for a week (just early) and I am excited to get this thing in. I always feel if you think something is going to take you 2 days to do it usually takes 4. You know when you do something early so you don't rush and get stuck and something gets pushed back, well yea that happened 3 times. Now we're at the holidays which I'm sure is going to push back more so I'm just waiting for these 2-4 days which might just turn into 2 weeks! If I can't roll through some gears soon I'll start having withdrawal!

NoOdle! I was looking for you! I had taken my cat off and wanted to run back those runs we did. I just wanted to see if it made the big difference I thought it would.

Guys my front fiberglass bumper needs lots of TLC. Does anyone know someone that could do a good job on it for me, patch, and paint stock black?
