You got me!

I have LED turn signals and Brake lights. Since they have no
real resistance, those are the side effects. I'll be fixing those soon.

Thanks for the compliments guys, It means alot.
Especially the video comments, as it's only my 3rd video ever.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way people - 12PSI is "quick", not "FAST".
Even with that low boost, I came from behind and passed
a high 13/low 14 second car like nothing.

At 17PSI, my car is a completley different animal, and
is hard to keep in a straight line.

12PSI is about 315 to the wheels
17 PSI = close to 400 = Go after Vettes and Cobras
20 PSI = Look out Porsche Turbos..

What gauge do you have were the clock used to be? How do you have your deck setup with the gauges underneath it? Can you tell me how to get that setup and where?

The gauge where the clock is looks like an air/fuel gauge. Those Cobalt gauges look good. I was thinking of getting them but was worried about the color contrast from the stock gauges.

That's it! No more slacking off. I'm going to start working on my car again!

DF: So now, lemme get this straight.... You are running a 13B-RE with twin turbos, no NOS, and a Holley 600 carb, right?

I gotta know b/c I'm taking notes on this one. That's one bad seven man!!

seriously, that was sick.

very impressive, if i wasn't in college and had some other things on my agenda, i'd start the turbo process literally right now.

but alas, i am in college so i'll stick to my stock gsl-se, and dream thoughts of turbocharging my car.

I was going to buy a 4 door truck when I graduated, but now I think I'd rather have a sequential twin turbo in my FB.
