i havent posted in here for a while
I blew my motor last July as some of you know and due to school and what not it stayed that way for a year. Well 2 weeks ago i finally have gotten my back up and running and give me a few weeks it'll be ready to tear up the streets again. Looking forward to the next autocross to try it out. I've never done it before and i finally got to see one in person. I can't wait to try it out.

I blew a headgasket about 300 miles before it blew. Piston number 4 chipped away and took out the whole block as well.
The motor is just a stock one with ARP rod studs, race bearings, and balance shaft elim. kit

saw who?
definately wasnt me
My car isn't running right now and won't be for a couple days :-)
At least it survived two weeks without getting molested and taken apart :-)
here is the piston that took out the motor and then how the car is sitting right now

That turn off Central is a nice one if nobody else is on the road.
I attached a pic of my new Turbo XS FMIC that showed up yesterday. I need to get that on there and my Lancer ES trunklid and then the car will feel like my own.
