But yeah, after all is said and done, 11's all dayyyy...
Same reason a married guy goes to a strip club..b/c it's fun even though you know it's going nowhere

Oddly, when it came time to tune the car it seems it was already ECUTEK tuned previously and it was prob tuined very well - although we could not find out as we yanked the emanage before the base run
It was a fun car to drive on the street - its a nice strete turbo and with pump gas its a nice low boost 20 psi 400 whp
With alcohol of race gas it would get more "interesting"
