See ya later guys!!! It's been a slice.

The car is SOLD!
Some kid here is getting a killer deal on a solid 13 second car, with potential for a lot more.

This forum is awesome, and I have to say without a doubt I would not have been able to do half the stuff to my car had it not been for the constant questions, answers, and input that this forum has provided.
EASILY the BIGGEST and BEST forum on the web. Even if there are a bunch of bitchy members here, lol.
I've learned so much from my first post that I can comfortable call myself an expert with respect ot a lot of aspects of the car. I'm still pretty uneducated in things like suspension, and turbo modification.. I know mostly abou the stock stuff.
Anyways, thanks for everything guys!
I'll still be on every once in a while, and I'll be selling a few leftover things soon. OH- I have a DIY wideband- built, working, just no sensor. email me if interested. I'll have a post in the classified section.
But if anyone needs any advice on doing custom work to their car- tuning, and custom turbo conversions, email me at flipkit@hotmail.com
It's been a slice! To bad the car's are too high mantainance foir a busy guy like me.

You'll be back.

The rotary world is like the mafia, once you're in you can never really leave.

That's right.I will be back. and I WILL be the first guy to run 15 PSI on pump gas- trust me. Give me 2 years.
I have an NA block running on an S4 turbo doing 13's completely safe. The old word physics mean NOTHING to me.
HAH!

What turbo at 15psi.

Soloracer ran his car at 21psi+ on pump gas for an entire summer.

On 89 octane, high comp NA rotors... I guess 15 isn't that steep for a normal TII though.
If I can tune and perfect a setup with high comp rotors and some other goodies, and have it be perfectly relaiable at 15-20+ psi (hard to do with the NA rotors)I'm going to market and sell the whole package. It's the rotors that really wake the turbo up. On a cold morning I can see 6 PSI at 1600 RPMs!!!! That's on a really sick turbo that needs a rebuild.

BTW- I'm driving a cavalier. Yes, a 1990 Z24. Automatic!!
Im actually thinking about throwing a turbo on it.
