Got my first ticket in the IDA turbo. updated pics

****, I got my first ticket in the car. It's not that bad at least it's not a speeding ticket. I have been waiting to get it running to get the car registered. So, I got two citations on my ticket one was breaking traction. whoops lsd, at least they didn't ask me to open the hood. Second was expired tags.

But anyways, I really couldnt get on it cause I was obeying the speed limits, I was just getting to them ungodly fast .

This was really the first time I expierenced the boost. Turns out that after locking the dizzy that the timing was really retarted. I had to pull out the dizzy and move it one tooth. Oh boy, it was a blast at only 6 lbs. For the first time since I got the car I'm really happy. even with the ticket, hell they could have got me for alot more. Sorry, not going to incriminate myself. Now the car sits till its registered. Might start cleaning it up and making it look decent.

Well, I turned my ticket into the 1st Sgt, recieved a verbal counceling and can't drive the car till, I have a registration in my hand and show it to him. Oh man, I wanna drive it now!!! I know with a little more tuning that thing will be insane. But, I have to wait till I get the paperwork from the Ohio BMV, Get a power of attorney for my father to get me registered and semi legal

I got the majority of the kit off of Yahoo Auctions Japan. The carb hat came with the kit. Most of the other stuff I have fabricated myself or got off ebay.

Yeah it's a straight JDM setup, I flew over and brought it back in my checked bags. Sigma kit I think that's what Blitz used to be called back in the day.

$8.00 Fiero ebay fan, works great!

Thanks

advanced auto has some rubber heater hose caps they just slip over, little tight so they dont fall off. I think they are size 5/8ths but cant remember off the top of my head.
