Oh you don't want to compare the mileage we have each clocked on the turbo's do you....... 
Ben lurking for a while. Got harder to wade through the thick stuff around here over the years.

Compare mileage....?
But....on that note, mile for mile, I'd say mine's had a harder life....
It's a case of "what have you done lately" in either case and mine made the midnight N.O. airport run for the New Zealander while yours was dreaming of leaving the shade....
Hey....there's a lapping day and dyno pul on the 21'st, you ready by then....
Scott says you can beat on his car once he gets it running this coming weekend....

I think you know better, hence why I wanted to change the head gasket in the first place...
You may have more
but I ain't afraid to beat on mine.....

Only by choice, too many other things going on in life since K so it got put aside. No longer though put in a few days on her lately....
I am in need of some .

Actually T held up very well....
That 911 I was riding in had some monstrous power.

I would love to perfect a launch that would put all the power to the wheels with no spinning into oblivion.
I would like to watch the trap times as I, hopefully, get more control.
My drag strip is 0-60 going onto the Earhart expressway. there is a stop light right leading straight onto the expressway (from new orleans going out).
It's great to sit at that stop, set the accerlerometer, and try to get every inch of power onto the street. Don't know how accurate those meters are, but I have hit from 5.7 to 6.25 0-60 much of the time.
So as soon as I Lindsey puts in my NEW CLUTCH i'm up for it !
