are you new to FD's or something? for all intents and purposes, the stock sequential system is non-seq when you are driving anywhere near hard. let's see, you can rev to 8k and the turbos don't go sequential again untill you are under 3k, where you make no power... why would you be under 3k then? hence, effectively non-seq.

might as well gut the internals and make a little more power on the top end then i guess.

I do hope you can come up! I still love the torque brace and the ypipe. It's all kinds of BLING!

I have to say Agentspeed did quite well driving his car and controlled his non-seq turbos very well. Only once I recall "light up" his tires.

That someone else was me.

Everything is great! I really appreciate your help. I bought a plug converter thingy for the cig lighter (what ever you call those things) so I can plug my lap top up in the car. Hopefully that will help us out for the next time. Also Innovative came out with a wideband gauge that will plug right in. I'm planning on buying it shortly.

I absolutely despise FedEx. I have had so many problems from their service that now if a company only ships using FedEx, I won't buy from them. UPS delivered my tires in 3 days... and their service is similar to US postal, they usually run about the same time every day.

Picked up the tires from FedEx yesterday and got them put on this morning. I haven't had a chance to drive it yet but they look sweet!
