Yeah, i saw the pics of D's turbo install. It looks really clean. I am considering going with D and just letting him do it, but that all depends.



My house is being sold right now, and the people that *might* settle have to be in the house a month after they sign. That means i would have no place (or garage) to put the car (i guess we will move into an apartment until our other house is done (which hasn't been started yet ))



So just dropping the car off at D's seems like the smart thing to do, but i really want to do the work myself, because i want to learn. I am not worried about D's craftsmanship, but i fear i will not have the same appreciation for the car that i would if i did it myself.



I don't know if that made a scrap of sense...



BTW kevin, your car looked ULTRA clean. You should come out to the drags with the rest of us sometime

hey bobby, i wanted to do it myself too. but i think i would have had a hard time with it. anytime i am messing with fuel, i am better off letting a professional do it. plus he needed to tune it also. oh yeah, i don't have a lot of tools at home. he let me watch when he was doing my turbo. i am tired of working on her all time anyways. i removed the stock twins twice, installed the coilovers, the 1300 injectors when i had them, dp,mp, smic, steering wheel and now onto my hids. that's enuf satisfaction for me too many bruised knuckles and it's too damn cold. i am down for the dragracing. i go quite often to capitol raceway. but it's too cold now and i think they are closed. t78 is n't that big very streetable. i will give you a ride if you want just let me check out your seats. kvn

No rent, free food, nobody bothers me, blah blah...

Its funny bobby no one realizes you are only 16. It says a lot about how you carry yourself. Not to sound like an old man (I am only 28) but you dont act like the stereotypical 16 year old and judging from meeting your dad he would probably give you a good kick in the *** if you did.



either way you arent allowed to be faster than me its a rule the older you are the faster your allowed to go. Thats why I have never run faster than a 11.6 I dont want to break that rule with me and Tom!! :P

It's a good rule, indeed a great rule, God's rule, a rule to live by, a rule that should be enshrined in the US Constitution, the 11th Commandment I believe!
