Picked up my FC yesterday
 
On my way home yesterday, I kept feeling a little hesitation when I would give it some throttle. My buddy behind me said a few flames shot out, then some smoke. At this time, the car died. I was in the left lane on the highway. I coasted to the breakdown lane to the right. After some investigation, we realized that I may have run out of gas (Cluster still isn't working). Got some gas with my 2-stroke mix and we were good to go. Once I got in my neighborhood, there were two police men standing in the road. When one heard me coming, he jumped. He then grabbed his light and fumbled to turn it on; that was pretty funny. He shined the light in my eyes and yelled for me to slow down. I was honestly going under 20mph. I guess that is what I get for driving a raceport with a 3" catless. :)

haha did you get a ticket at all?

MonkeyMagic 03-05-08 09:45 AM

No ticket. I drove by him then came back around. I apologized for it being so loud. He told me to slow down and get the car fixed. I lauged, and said ok. The car is fixed. I put a silencer on it, but it does nothing.

Yup, finally done! Well almost. It is driveable, which is the most important part. I just need a roll bar, coilovers, and small stuff like that. I'll post some pics tonight. The weather finally cleared up, so I can take some pics.

MonkeyMagic 03-05-08 03:33 PM

Yes i did. Those guys are the best. I highly recommend them.

BTW, that enfini seat is for sale if anyone is interested.

willub and company 03-05-08 03:38 PM

nice, i knew i had seen a pic of your car a couple years back and it looked really familiar to the one on the DSG website.. now i know why!

how much power is it putting down now? how much for the seat?

we're having a meet next Friday at moe's in Worcester, come!

MonkeyMagic 03-05-08 03:43 PM

Right now, it is putting down 250 whp and 210 wtq at 6 psi. I want to break it in a little before I go full boost.

$300 for the seat.

Give me some details on the meet.

booootiful. i love the silver and gold style.

Hypertek 03-06-08 02:36 AM

car looks sweet

i got a question, on the Vmount intercooler setup, was wondering if you still have A/C?

MonkeyMagic 03-06-08 05:59 AM

No ac. I took it out before the v-mount set up, but I don't see how the piping would be routed with the compressor in.
