I just read thru all 16 pages of your build. And DAMN ! Your engine needs a womens name (a women with big breasts). I wish you were in the panhandle just so I could see your hotness in person ! I hope you hit your HP mark !

Been there but once you take it for a drive after its done you forget about all the money that was spent and all you can do is smile when the car starts to get into boost and it puts you back in your seat

+1 As soon as you get smashed into your seat, you forget about all the troubles and money it took to get to that point.

To me though, nothing makes it more worthwhile than taking a friend who doesn't know what they are about themselves into for a small test drive. Hitting full boost and watching your passenger scramble to find the door handle or anything to hold onto before you let off is just priceless.

It will all be worth it once you take that first drive and go WOT!! Mine has running fairly well, but now hasn't run for two weeks. Re doing the WHOLE Motec map with the help of YawPower.com

Also re-doing the methanol system...

WOW!! I have a turbo vert, im cool right??? Just kidding. You have the cleanest 7 ever!!!
those rims look pretty tight on the t2. What are they from? RX-8?
