I still like the GTX though. We have on in at the shop right now that my friend just picked up in T.O. Wow theose Miata motors pull HARD! Espescially under 15lbs of boost AWD.

Agreed the FC's period are much nicer cars but this was about performance not looks.

I often have more fun with the civic sometimes though because is bare looking and noone see's it comming untill you drop the hammer

As for the FC everyone expects more than it can give.

God i can't wait for this white **** to be gone and use boys can hook up for a cruise. I will set one up with Redliners etc.. As well for a gatineau cruise this spring. There are many new additions to the ottawa scene this year that are mighty impressive.

Kenny even has a new setup that looks really killer. I believe he's gone CRVtec on 25lbs boost :o

Gonna be some fun times.

Have you seen the video's from last summer? I was hosting them for a while and will send them to you if you haven't.

The snow is good. Right now, my IC piping is off, my oil cooler is out, my wiring is disconnected. I'm just cleaning up the engine bay some more, and insulating the wiring...**** was melting everywhere near the turbo/dp...If there was no snow I'd be that I couldn't drive it.

Damm, how much faster can Kenny's car going to get, lol. Big $$$.

Yeah, send me the vids...

Hey did you wanna float the car down to Line-X one of these weekends. bring some beer and I'll help you finish off.

A full garage makes the job much faster. I have an mig there as well.

As for the Nitrous kit it's about 1100 or so installed.

Lemme guess you want 2 of the big ones

I would do a 75 shot of zex. with the right fuel curve I could probbally get you another 80whp for 1100 bux

400 hp FC here we come !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I might take you up on that offer in a few weeks. Still waiting on Ian to see if we're going to order some of those thermal sleeves from Summit.

I'm assuming that's a wet set-up. I want a 100 shot. I'll give it some thought I'd want to hide the bottle(s) in one of the bins, though

Bin install is easy.

100 shot is no prob either. Wow your ride with a 100 shot will dominate the ottawa scene!!!!

I'l PM you the link to my server immediately. Please keep the link private as I don't have much bandwith.

This weekend I have to do a server migration but next weekend I would be happy to help you out. PM me and we can set something up if your interested.

Always willing to help another enthusiast. Could even do a NOS install for you if your feeling up to it. And yes its a wet shot. As long as you have a kick *** fuel pump were laughing.
