Yes sirius kicks ***.

Im amazed at the stupidity on Evom, just ran across a thread where some guy refered to the red as a garret chra and said to stick with journal bearing turbos, like Mitsu turbos, ect. LOL

Obviously he has no idea that the red is a FP modded mitsu turbo and is journal bearing!

Ok, the story is:

I have both a silver and a gray one. The silver one is VERY beat up... however, some glazing compound and sanding could make it look like new. However, it is missing 2 of the tabs to hold it in place. Probably not all that useful.

The gray one is in reasonable shape, however, both of them are missing the extra "plate" that covers about an 8" opening under the lip. Must be for accessing something, I can't remember what.

Let me know if you want either...

So, call me an idiot but I just got a loan to finish the car. Looks like Strictly Modified will be getting the car sooner then expected.


If anyone is interested in a Evo car wash day. I can host one this weekend on Saturday. Fire-cajoles you should come down to this side of town soon

I can't really picture what that part is. If you could send me some pics I'd appreciate it, and Ill be interested in the gray one then, since its a little better shape...If that "plate" doesn't affect how it looks when it's on the car, I shouldn't be too worried about it

Yup, they were right tonight... I got worked a few times by a GTO running 11s. Fun stuff though for my first time out. The car felt good. Now I need to learn how to launch consistantly .

Here's my best ET (MikeMAN and I guessed that someone who could cut a decent 60' would have gotten closer to high 11s):

I think you would notice it...

How come you don't want to buy a new one, or an aftermarket lip?

I didn't want an aftermarket one just because I like stock. and i just figured a used one from around here would be cheaper anyway....
