lol, alright wayne... ur going down sucka! lol


well i got the new clutch installed and i have never seen a modular clutch come apart like this one did... and i am thinking when it came apart it took some of the bearings in the tranny, so i had to get a new trans from a local junkyard... it is running ten psi, but i am still trying to get used to the new clutch, alot stiffer than the centerforce. six puck prolly will do that... lol...

but i am happy with it so far, turning the boost up prolly end of the week...

the car is running well again on 10 psi, i have not pushed it yet due to inspection time (it is legal now) i will be working on getting it fully inspectable this up coming winter hooking up dumby coil pack, and dumby injectors... besided that i have been driving it about 3-4 times a week to work, and is running well... i would like to keep jumping the boost up, but i am having a mild problem with fuel right now (tuning issue)

.... i have not updated this in FOREVER!!!! decided i might need to...

well the old turbo setup is gone... i decided i wanted to go alittle bigger.... went with a bullseye s256 turbo with extended tip, tial 38mm wastegate, 3 inch downpipe will be added at a local exhuast shop i am hoping this week. i have changed my intake side as well going with a AMM intake manfold. i have also added and taken out some seating as well, sparco speeds ftw! the rear stock bucket seats are now gone, and have been replaced by a steal wall....

enough talk... on with the pics.

with this turbo and my .9 bar wastegate spring will put me at 15psi, (street driven) and estemated at 320-330whp, on my turbo xs boost controller this setup putting out 25 psi will be putting me at around 425whp on pump gas... should be a handful this year

that does not include the nitrous setup either... :P

got the car outside today, the exhaust will be done later this week, then tuning will start next weekend if all goes well, ccar sounds sick nasty with no exhaust, lol. shift lights and flat shift will be added this week to the megasquirt for better time at the track and easier drivablilty with the shift lights.

plan on taking the car to see fast five the day after my birthday, best thing is i think my gf can not wait to ride in the car more than me, ahha
