Kidding about the last post. I know Tommy wont say it, but the car went 10.5 at 12.5 PSI and I believe he missed a shift. At his dyno day he at 13 PSI it made 580hp and at 18.5 it made 663. He didnt get top numbers because I heard the springs on the gates were not stiff enough.

The car is nasty.

WOW, this may have just made up my mind to ditch the 2 rotor, is there any better up close engine bay pics that show how the turbo fits, intercooler piping, and so forth? Also, I think evertybody would love to see some vids.....congrats on one of the cleanest 3 rotors and great numbers too!

Nice ride. I'm always amazed at how good the FD still looks 14 or so years later.

I just had a debate with a colleague about how even the newest vette doesn't have the appeal of the 14yr old FD. This is a stand up example!

before & after

How come nobody ever post any before and after pics?


For all I know you could have just bought the car already fixed up. There is no proof of you hard work.

this is a very nice car - all around. i like it a lot! i also like the apparent modesty of the owner that is VERY refreshing.

Thank you for all your posts. I do need to get some videos up. Dave, i pm'd you. As for not making a before and after post..... because i didnt want to start a forever never ending thread like most of the people do on here. I just wanted to get it done, and get it up and running and to the track. Its the fd greddy 3 row. just the pieces coming off the endtanks are modified to come straight out instead of straight up like it comes from greddy.

I'll add he drove to the track on pump gas, ran the 10.5 on pump gas and drove home. Nice pics Tommy.

Roan, there must be a reason you are lurking in the 20B section
