Wow! Now I'm confused. I'm sorry my web site is unclear. Here's the deal:

That one blue interior shot is of my dad's car. That's his daily driver. It's a '88 TII. The dark car that I call mine is also still owned by my dad. We'll transfer title to me one day.

He bought the dark car in '93. He bought the white car (blue interior) in '94 and parked the dark one in his warehouse from '94 until '99. I bought it from him in March of '99.

When my first motor blows....

When my first motor blows I am going to cry like a little baby, then I am going to swear like a drunk, then I am going to laugh and have fun learning to re-build the engine =) muahahaha

Suggestion though - LOTS of octane booster and wet NOS when pushing the max.
Octance booster is like piggy back ecu's, its a half job that may get the job done for a while but its really just side stepping the real problem.

If you wanna run more than 15PSI boost safely you gotta looke at higher octane gas, octane booster only rases the octane rating by 2 or maybe 3 if you find a really good one but most of them dont achieve **** all, some even decrease your octane rating.

3mm seals, like 2mm seals will still crack apon detonation, and a lot of people fall into the trap of thinking you can detonate with a bit less worry with them. You cant, you will still crack the apex seal and if you dont crack the apex seal there is a pretty high chance you will crack a plate instead.

You have to be OH SO careful, one ping is enough to kill an engine. better to be safe than sorry...........time to fork out for 100 octane
