Proud New Owner of an FC

Well today I just purchased my second 89 Turbo FC. This one was once a GXL and now a TO4 .60-.80 fire spitting demon(yes its red). Wow is this f*cker fast. Anyway I didn't get on it too much(nothing over 5.5k) it still needs a proper tune, its running rich right now. Pics up in a soon, just thought I'd share my good news with the forum. This is like I said my 2nd FC since 2002 so I decided to make a new Username for my new vehicle.

Yes it should look familar, was sold on the 2nd Gen Section :-D. This was the 5th FC I had looked at in 4 weeks around Florida..finally found what I was looking for.
Gramlights indeed...
Plans for the car: Better tune @ 15psi, Black paint, replace a few missing interior pieces, figure out how to hook the A/C AND the E-fan with the Microtech's one input(ya..I know a 12v genius so we will see how it goes).
