Can proudly say that "I own the fastest car I have EVER driven!!!!"
OMG>>>>>>>>OMG OMG OMG
This car is FORKIN' UNBELEIVABLE!!! I have been pulled around by it all day long! Not only that, it runs better than it EVER has! It idles smoother, revs smoother (and quicker), runs cooler!
I made MANY Spirited runs today! I drove it pretty much ALL day. You can get out, pop the hood, and put your "bare" face right on top of the intake manifold! THis thing is UNBELEIVABLE!
I have never been in a car this FAST! It pulls in 4th like it used to pull in 2nd! It just KEEPS ON PULLING! I need bigger brakes! I "pegged" it a couple of times in 4th gear today! WOW! THis is CRAZY!
I took my neigbor with the 450 hp Z28 (1980) for a ride. He was SOOOO blown away that he gave me $20 for gas!
I took my other neighbor for a ride (and his cute G/F at the same time). THis guy has been on several SERIOUSLY fast 600cc bikes. He said I am "deffinately" in the 600cc territory (at 14lbs to boot!)
WOW..... How did everybody else react to their turbo upgrades?

Wait.. you mean a boost enhancer like <a href="http://www.smartcart.com/Paragon/cgi/display.cgi?item_num=944BoostEnh" target="_blank">this?</a>
That's really all you've done?
I know you needed injectors for the longest while, was that part of the upgrade?

So Lukester,
I noticed that your list of goodies doesn't include injectors, did you revert back to the stock ones, or simply forget to list em...?
BTW good job, how about some pics..?
What's the color of the intake look like with the gray pipes....?
Post some G-tech times when you get a chance.
What would you say was the real issue that held you back, most recently..?
Did you really put your finger on the poor running/idling from a few days ago, or did it start running right after changing more than one thing..
glad to see you're up and running, and runnung well......! <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" /> <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" /> <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />

screw the pics.. I wanna see some video!!!
Where do you live again?? I'd love to see your car! Go get a dyno run or two and give us some numbers!
Question: do you wish you'd gone with a standalone EFI vs. the PROFLOW?
