Hello Doug. Welcome to our little group. We meet the second Sunday of each month at Buger King on Williamson RD in Mooresville. It is off exit 36 on I77. If your interested in coming to one of our meets, I can post a link to mapquest or something.

Anthony, YOU NEED A FRONT MOUNT INTECOOLER! Right now, mine is tuned perfect for 15psi. This is the best the old girl has ever ran. I just wish that I had the funds to go standalone.

Well here is some pics of what I've got done so far. I've been sick
So been working slowly, but I think I may have it ready for paint this weekend.
I'm hoping to have it in primer 2marrow. Still some more rust to take care of in the hatch.
And my IMSA Rear wing is not going back on it. Looking for a cleaner look. So it may be for
Sale soon.

Sweet beans Mills.

Long, we had fun, and I opoligise for the misses behavior. She has been on an emotional rollercoaster as of late. We definantly need to take a drive back on that road. I was taking it pretty easy through there considering the Buell needs some new rubber. I was still railing pretty good though

Hey DJ, you can, but it makes things ALOT easier if you relocate the battery.

Yeah, I've read that post and I have decided to let these kids talk all they want. Everytime I try to steer them in the right direction, I usually get over talked. We all know that if you read it on the internet, it has to be true................

i agree but i just hate it when those that come here looking for quality answers and advice only to get their ideas shot down by those that really don't know what they're talking about, and at the same time those listening to advise from ppl that know even less.

True that. I try to give them the advice they need, but it is rarely the answer they want.

Long, I'm still waiting on those progress pics on the turbo FB. So far I have sanded, prepped and primed the entire left side of the Jeep, and half of the right side. The flat black looks way better than faded, clear coat peeling blue. I have also installed a 2" lift. Not much, but hey, sometimes you just got to start somewhere

Definitly looking WAY better. I'm proud of ya buddy!

I had to go out of town Friday, and I decided to drive the turbo FB. I have spent ALOT of time tuning this thing for 15psi, and descent fuel mileage. HOLY CRAP. The old girl really impressed me. 167.8 miles. 6.531 gallons. Do the math. That is 25.69 mpg. Not too shabby for 400hp
