That sucks you have to go through so much to get those cars licensed to drive on the streets over in the US. Over here, they let them right on the roads without any problems whatsoever.

BTW, is your battery lowered in there or is it mounted in the trunk? I just swapped out mine today for a smaller Tsunami race battery to free up some space so I can toss an oil catch can in there and will update a pic of under the hood later tonight if I get home in time before it gets dark as I made a few other changes. You can check it out if you like in the link in my signature later this evening hopefully.

If you look at the pic of the engine bay from the side you can see the battery under my air cleaner. I made a box for it.

You could always use DSM link over the mega squirt, which has knock control.

That is if you can source a '95 eprom ecu. They're becoming rare as gold these days. But I'd have to agree, DSMlink would be my choice.

Just took my car to the track this weekend. I started off by rolling out and being easy on it. I had a 2.4 60ft time and passed the traps at 11.8 @ 122 the next couple of passes I clicked off some 11.1-11.2 @ 130-131 and I put a little juice to it (75shot) and was racing aginst this tubbed out wagon. He rapped me out of the hole, I pulled a 1.7 60ft. and started to pull on him, I just passed him in 3rd and shifted into 4th and my clutch let go(stripped the splines on the discs on the quarter master). I passed the traps at 10.9 @ 121. I ran the low 11's on only 28-30 psi on boost only and a very safe tune.

Still much more left in the car. Just wanted to share with you guys.

Any specific reason that you went for the 15s? They look a little small in the wheel well. Other than that though dude, this car is NIICCCEEEE!!!! I like it a lot man. Your engine compartment is looking very clean. All around great car.

OH and your daughter is cute dude. Big ups on the fam.

Stuck with the 15's because they are the stock wheel that came with the car and I haven't had time to shop around to find a set that I like.

I need to get a little taller tires because im passing the traps in 4th at 9400rpms and if I shift into 5th it slows me down way to much.

Thanks for the comments guys
