It probably runs pretty rich which will come in handy if I ever start to upgrade anything.
i dont know about n/a's, but turbos have a fuel/air mixture dial north of the air intake, right around where the fuel cut defender is

Yeah pretty sure that's only for idle though. Maybe one day I'll get an SAFC or something. Hell, maybe one day I'll actually mod my car! I did order a cone filter though.

The na's and T2's have the same dial, its really pretty much useless, but it can lean a t2 out too much, even this widebody 1st gen has the same mix screw >.>

Hey Steve-O. What exactly are you looking for? There's usually a few for sale around the area. Are you into the old school first and second gen thing or the slightly less old school third gens?

Hey Steiny, I should be at CC right around 6. Anyone else is welcome to attend, otherwise it'll probably just be us.

For anyone who wants to drop by, it's the West Knoxville/Cedar Bluff Circuit City across from Best Buy and Lowes.
