A red one is missing in those picts : )
I would probably purchase a red NA for daily driving next summer and fix up my turbo for track if I had space. 4 cars in a single driveway is a bit to much, already tuff managing 3.

So far my winter projects are:
Pull the dash for recovering
Pull the seats and give the carpets a really good deep cleaning and then reseal any parts that are peeling off
Replace any old/cracked interior moldings
remove the front splitter and have it repainted
Remove rear hatch, remove and reseal the frame
check and redo stereo wiring, and replace head unit (going to need your assistance on this one Phill
replace outer window moldings
finish installing 968 brake ducts
Find that damn oil leak!
And maybe just maybe, install a supercharger.
So far that's all I can think of.
For me it's pretty much the end of the season, I have one more week at home, then when I come back next time it will be December.... So this is probably my last week before I put her to bed for the winter.

I took the afternoon off to play me my car. I felt like the car was missing power on our hooligan drive.
explained the problem to my mechanic over and he said it might be that I have to much boost.
I lowered the boost on my LSD to minimum, now I get 15psi on reading and the car runs amazing.
Problem: My injectors where not pushing enough fuel (I have the stock ones). My reading was 18psi, with not enough fuel = engine lean.
So I went for a ride on the highway to test its really better. I still need to go this week to my mechanic and do a compression test. That thing you guys said about big puffs of smoke coming out my exhaust pipe scared me. Could be a gasket job.

I saw your car at Michel's shop, it looks really clean, sorry about the head gasket.
Projects for this winter:
Check belts
Maybe change motor mounts again, it vibrates a LOT
