Mike, I intend to come back down in a couple weeks. Fix that gasket, EGT, and lets wrap this thing up!

The car did make very good power for the boost level( 20 psi) and RPM(5200).

I am pretty sure in the end it will make your goal...

Want to tune a power fc while in town?

I would have bought an adaptronic if they were available as a PNP in mid 2012 if that makes you feel any better.

I had the opportunity to see this car start for the first time in person. Sounds super badass. Just from the sound of the engine and the visual of the turbo you just know this thing is capable of offensive numbers!

Must be a pretty radical cam in there.

G/L with getting things ironed out, Mike.

Hey jay! Not much to update. Ordered a mazda oem rew intake metal gasket and cut to fit the Cosmo ports and semi. waiting on egt box to come back from innovate. Also need to set up a catch can. Just letting go to atmosphere now. Have to wire cooling fan and pick up a drum of methonal next week. Ray should be coming here in March to tune it. Just been busy with my children and there activities. I will at the best just make some 1/8th passes this season since I have no safety mods...

Sorry for lack of updates. The drag section has become pretty dead so not on here much. Car is 100% ready for tune. Had Ray scheduled but it didn't work out. Hope to have a semi local shop do the tune next week or the following at the latest.
