I have officially saod farewell to my bank account, and my girlfriend is already becoming jealous of the amount of time i spend with her... the car that is.

Looks nice I can't wait until I can get some form of forced induction.. You could always donate your GXL to my cause... UM... I'll think of a really good cause, too, if you'd want

Congrats on the FI

Now - don't blow it up, like some of us (me included).

Does the dash boost gauge work?

Keep the GXL as a daily. Keep the miles down on the TII.

You mean you "stole" it for a grand.
It's already had some basic mods.

I assume the battery is relocated?

And I would keep that GXL to drive around...... the 93 octane gas for the TII will run you broke (or me anyways....), I found that out.


And you'll learn to not have a lead foot, because if you do, it gets much worse gas milage. I got mine down to 12-14 MPG one day. with $15 bucks worth the gas (at like $1.95 a gallon), it only went about 85 miles...... Now I shift at 2500 RPM's, exept for the occasional spirited drive
