When the 2 step came on I scared the **** out of me, I had to put the camera down and just get out of there.

Ha....... That's exactly what mine's going to look like this year. Exhaust location is the same and everything

LOL... That's funny... It happens to everyone ant so don't be afraid.
I put a mazda on the 2 step in my shop and there was a guy filming it and he **** himself too and you see the camara moving around like crazy.
I'll see if i can get the video from him.

At 50lbs of boost you can really feel it in your body and i bet your heart probably stops beating too...

It's also good to clean up your shop.
Everytime i do it cleans the dust off the ceiling...

BTW congrats!!!

Thanks Enzo, I saw the car you are tuning down there doing really well. I got some nice videos of him going down the quarter.

As for the 2step on these cars, i'd rather just stay away!

I saw this beautiful cym FD make the first 10sec pass of its career. I was so moved by the time she made and how well she sounded. Anthony congratulations and honestly bro I dont think anyone else could of brought back a car from the grave to make it run 10s in such short time. RX794 and I are next up for the 10sec club!!!
Kudos............................

Thanks guys for the support!

Darkphantom - There are a number of T88 kits. I have the 34D which in my opinion spools really fast, almost the same as my T78. I drove in a car with the T88H and that took a while to spool, I did not like it at all. I got this setup a while back but turbo technology has advanced so much, its not worth it getting a new greddy turbo kit, better off getting one of the new turbos but I still like the greddy turbos for their durability
THe BOV was a HKS Twin Sequential but the O Ring between the flange and the BOV itself was leaking. I think that is why the MPH was so low. You are supposed to have a green O ring there, I used the only one I could find at the team and it was leaking a lot.

Lupe - not too many other rotary guys out there but this event coming up at ETOWN (nhra event) and the one in Virginia should have a LOT of rotary guys.

Jay - thanks man! I could not have brought the car back from the fire without the help of Tony and the guys at T and R! Everyone chipped in and helped with everything.

Olmytsi - Thanks dude

Anthony
