Hell you are pyscho anyways.

 

Im doing a turbo conversion next summer, now im like dammit, it gonna be a while. Good sale a good buy.

 

I like boost too, and I am not insane. And you should not exceed 120mph in a FB without some changes if you plan to do it long. But regardless of this, due to September 2005 gasoline prices, I am not driving with the turbo on the car currently till or if gas prices are more like they were 1year ago or I have a huge raise OR find a way to get much cheaper fuel then is being sold.

I have a blowthrough, but the operating cost is very high with $2.80/gallon gas. It equates to - $25 for just 80-100 highway miles- NOT city driving -that is even worse!!!! Heck, that used to be my fuel budget for a week that got me further then I would want to go. So unless you drive straight to work and back and not go anywhere else, you will burn a huge hole in your wallet with a turbo on unless its detuned for MPG's

 

*sigh of relief*

Thank GOD it went to someone who knows what the hell to do with it! I was practically crying knowing that it could potentially go to some random person on eBay. Not to mention the fact it will still "be around" so I can keep dreaming on it.

Mike, I had the available funds when I sent you that PM, but I didnt get a response soon enough so I was forced to do something responsible with it instead. I wish I couldve had your car, its my dream car in the making, but hey, at least I get 38 MPG now

This is what I get for staying away.

At the club BBQ this weekend I heard rumors of "Max7 bought a new toy." No details. So he rolls up to the meet, kick stuff around etc, and then I ask him what he bought.

Then he told me.

My reaction, at first, was "no way...". Then we went up to the garage where it is in hiding and I was all "NO WAY...".

BTW... That f'er is LOUD.

 

so wait. this beast is in our area now??

 

Yeah its extremely loud. Anyway, did you guys do any work to it? Take it for any spins?
