Lol you would think right?? I actually don't own it but a friend of mine with a turbo 8 just brought one back from Detroit. And i believe we can get more since they got a guy from Puerto Rico that has hook ups.

yeah thats why i kind of dropped the idea of getting one in my rx8, so i decided to pass the engine to some1 on here that might want that kind of project. With the money it takes to get one boosted running is like buying another car

So what are you tuning?

You going to run more than stock boost pressure?

I went for single for reliability and ease.

Angie's lil bro Ben is getting married on saturday. Plan on meeting up with OnlyOnThurs in a couple days and checking out his FB and also going to a really good place to eat. I'll show off some cool pics once I get back on Sunday evening. So far we have checked out the Alamo, and the River Walk. Plan on going to the zoo and chinese garden (next to each other) and maybe something else. Would like to go to Sea World, but not sure if we will have enough time.

Just for the record, for all the people that say truck freight shipping takes along time - You're full of ****. I paid for the body kit on thurs night and got a call today saying that its in Davenport and they are wanting to deliver it tomorrow... DAMMIT lol. I'll probably end up driving up there and picking it up next monday... Ugh, and all these stories I hear about it "always" taking 2-3 weeks.

Blade - How come you quit working at that place in New London. Im hearing stories about you working with Jessica now???

So what are you tuning? fd3s with my pfc and commander

You going to run more than stock boost pressure? yeah 13-14psi is what im shooting for

I went for single for reliability and ease. ill go single prob next year sometime if i feel the need to do it.
