I will be doing some tuning and fine tuning some components here soon enough. I just needed a break from wrenching for a week or so and just wanted to enjoy my car for a bit
though I can appreciate that it might qualify as fully completed for some shady character
I dunno man, he has lightweight rims, lower and exhaust only and I was kinda with him in 1st and 2nd but by third he was pulling on me hard; and 4th not even competition....

Haha, I'm scoping out Gregs build and will potentially be swapping my whole kit if it can throw down....
and
No but it is my roommate so I could easily do that with video again... I'm also sure I would do much better if I have my EBC installed and tuned, right now it's running all off the wastegate spring.......
My garage is a total disaster of car parts from S2K, SRT4, Camaro and the 8 right now.... it will be getting a good clean this weekend then I can hopefully get some wrench time in to get the EBC installed. I recently started a new career so I have been quite busy during the week days but now that I have a good routine going I should be able to get my act together!!

Here is a little run I did this AM from 50mph to 8-9psi or so before I backed off. Felt really strong.

Yeah, nevermind. There were shifts that weren't really picked up. Sorry, head is fuzzy today 
Wasn't expecting a sampling rate of half a second, which was messing with me further.

All you would need to do is remove the Vband and slide the CHRA in.

My PLX goes to 10.0 and when I get near 10.0 at WOT I misfire. Although i don't do that anymore since fixing the issue.

Thanks Shady, I'll keep that in mind, but to be honest I'm interested in the larger BB turbo because ultimatly I'd like to hit that 350whp range.... also I don't have much spare cash at the moment becasue I just bought a DD and I'd like to grab a BHR ignition set-up sooner than later along with some new plugs. Hopefully my stock coils are still in good enough shape that it won't lean my tune out..... 60000 km (37 282 mi) on what I'm assuming are the original coils (plugs have been replaced before). Bought the car in 08 with 13000 km (8078 mi).
