Regarding weight loss I need to be careful. At 192 am concern I may not fit in the Recaro Profi I got for the project.
I need to go on the "Ranger diet"... Ranger school. I lost 34 lbs in 61 days of training.

Ok, for whoever likes to know.

Two diets I like.

1) Zone
2) Paleo

15 minutes of cardio Four to five times per week.

****Please consult your doctor first****

Quoted to keep track of your Technical Service Bulletin updates.

Brakes: Modified
Suspension: Modified
Body Parts and Aero: Modified
Transmission: Modified
Exhaust: Modified
Wheels and Tires: Modified
Engine: Stock


You need to break-in that engine, with only 800 miles it must be tight, and if you drive it hard from the start, it will wear out bearings and ring a little faster so avoid it.

Dyno? Scales?

Thanks guys!

Rad; Scales above. Dyno maybe after mancation.
Transmission is still stock, or do you mean LSD?
I think next upgrade is regear the gear box when I put in 4.0 clutch and RP.

I'm going to PBIR at 5PM to break it in, just short shifting it a bit but I am sure it has been revved up before.
Saturday again to PBIR and change oil again perhaps, after that I consider it broken in.
