Hopefully no one will turn this into an HP debate with his car. 135mph on pump gas is "gettin it" no matter what hp numbers the dyno says.
Thanks for the comments, David!

I really didn't plan on the hp I made...we just found a problem and fixed it and the hp was there. More hp just means I find the next weak link. There isn't any e85 in my town. If I went e85, I would have the measure the gas mileage in gallons per mile!

He is going to. Has a 2j going in it. He usually races his 240/2j mid 9 second car but it was under the knife.

I believe that Volvo is one of the fastest Volvo's in the US. It is a high 11 sec car.

Bobby, I meant to show you My still way shifter. I think you would like it with our tranny. You don't have to think about the shifts, just forward and back!

OUCH, I'm in Allen's category now after only a short layoff?
Allens, going on 5 years! Speaking of, where is he and everyone? This place is dead!

I dont even have anyone to **** talk too.

I'm just finishing up on my ram air system and I should hit the 1/8th mile track within two weeks.

Yeah, I am not sure what all is going on but I the rotary section is about done. Guess I will start hanging on the honda tech forum more..

Ernie sells his car, Enzo went piston and the whole NE section dies...
