MN New FC owner

Hey all, completely new here and to these cars. Name's Scott, I'm 25 from southern Minnesota, a couple on here probably actually already know me. As much as I hate to admit this, I came from the world of Saturns, had a quite nice boosted second gen coupe. Wanted to get out of the front drive game and try my hand at my first rwd car and stumbled upon this. I'm sure I'll be forgotten about as I tend to just read at first, get to know the feel of the board. Also I probably won't be well liked for this car haha.

It made 445hp/448tq to the wheel on 125 shot. Since I have to tear it apart the new goal is over 400 on the motor. Shouldn't be too hard.
