By the way kevin's car is nicer than I thought, took a test drive yesterday and I should be picking the car up this weekend. Getting this car is going to releive so much stress with trying to get to school everyday.

Ah dang, my brother's won't be ready in time for the next meet. It still needs shocks, springs, and tires until its ready to take some turns. The rear of the car has washed out on my dad when he was just regularly driving it around town. I think within the next 3 months it will be ready for a meet. I thought we were talking about the caravan to Sevenstock when we would have 5 GXLs.

Or VERY clogged cat? I had a very similar problem, ended up being the fuel pressure regulator was sending "WAY too much" fuel.

okay cool Casey I'll try to get my car ready by then and see what happens.

BTW: everybody I'm in riverside today I picked up my harness it looks okay I'm no expert on seeing what's good or not I guess just look for broken or missing peaces right, anyway half of one injector clip is broken on the secondary fuel I think, and I also got a bonus add on to the harness. There is this HKS adujst point thing wired in near where the ECU plugs in.

Yeah it was ported really well along with the ex. mani to match. However I just sent it to a buddy to get ported even more. I thought I had a stock 16g shaft but I quickly realized when installing the new exhaust housing that I actually had the big shaft. That's a good bad thing. I'm also porting the wastegate/ DP side by about a 1/4 inch as well. Any way, I also just got a thicker hard pipe kit from a buddy that doesn't neck down and flows a lot better. While the turbo is out getting ported I'm having larger in/outlets welded on the intercooler. Needless to say, after a good tune I should be keeping up with you guys.
Glad you like Kevins car. It should be lots -o -fun. I'll show you where I made some cheap aluminum ducting and add a Taurus e-fan from an SHO at your local pick-ur-parts and you will be good to go. However, it sounds like you don't even really need it. Congrats! I'm glad someone will actually be driving it for once. Plus you can take me for some burn-outs
