Oh, and I changed my signature for ya...

I think he is thinking of MikeSVOR, he doesn't post on turboford much anymore. Ever since I think it was gt350 or gator posted the chopped picture of Fred Sanford sitting in his car. lol Pretty cool guy though, I think he mostly post on turbomustangs now but not sure.
BTW, I am Randy on Turboford, member number 18

Later

Wooo, that's a nice primernotch! If I had a Mustang, it would probably look similar to that, but a little more ghetto...

Haha... 300 wtq with a 2.3T isn't that much. My bone stock 2.3T made 158 hp/200 tq on 12 psi and no intercooler. :1
