Larger one. I think 1.06. I saw 2 of these 500R's dyno and both put down right around 430 at one bar. I am hoping to get the same. If I am feeling brave I will tune for 20PSI.

Hopefully it will be done by then. I was trying to get it done in time for the last one, but this time I might actually make it.

Yeah, it is running. The haltech was blown, and had to be sent to Australia to be fixed. Took them 3 months to fix the thing. Just got it back last week.

It just sits in the garage wasting away. Rather sell it to someone who is gonna drive it. Based on the tight economy right now, I doubt anyone is going to put up the cash.

No one seems to have 20K just laying around.

That sucks, sorry to hear. That is one of the nicest dueces out there. You'll probably kick yourself in the *** after you sell it. Just hold on to it and pass it down to your kid(s), Oh and drive it!

dang wish it was closer to my price range. My friend just bought a stupid 06 corvette and is talking smack on his stock 425hp. It would be sooooooo freaking sweet to spank him in this!
Guess I need to tune the FD a bit tighter and give that vette a run.
