Hey pat...not much. Sorry, I'll give you a shout this weekend sometime. I finally have time to breathe after these classes.
Whose down for the track? Weather pending of course!?! I've got a guy from my office coming out with his wrx.

Sweet. I may have lost track, but weren't you getting your brothers car or something?
We're wrenching on Ben's slab tomorrow, and another guy here scored a Green for cheap, so we'll be doing his soon too.

well ben will have his BBK on here by the end of this weekend, so you can get a review of that..and I can give you the scoop on my setup. I'd hit up Arizona Forced Induction for your stock turbo tubular manifold...but that's just me. ;-)

Since the new setup, and the prompt death of the stock clutch, I haven't run. I run out of 4th gear waaay before the finish. Best I have done, crossing the traps with the clutch pushed in!!...was an 11.9 at only 103mph. So you can tell from the trap speeds it was decelerating since I was in neutral! lol It has a much better pass than that in it, but with the short 4th gear I haven't seen a need to beat on the car, only to cross the traps on neutral again.

I wish I had the money for one of their manifolds. I don't think they do a stock turbo one anymore anyway. It is one sexy piece of an automobile part though. It would be great if Bob would update his will and put me as the beneficiary of that thing. I would quickly turn my turbo into an externally wastegated one.

You want to see if we can just "deal" and try to leave the radiator on!?! It's not hard to take out, but would save prob and hour removing/re-installing and filling and all that. We can throw some cardboard over the backside to prevent dings on the fins..
