Re: my latest build(aways boosted)
I bet it was the MSD coil that kept frying the igniters, but I like the Carbon Fiber.
It's just that fuel door sticks out like a sore thumb.
It's like sexy green, sexy green, sexy green, BLOCK OF GREY.
Personally just thought it fucked up the flow.

Re: my latest build(aways boosted)
I read a lot of negatives and positives about the msd distributors, but I like to make my own reviews about certain stuff especially if the bad reviews are fron h-t, cause all the bad views are from T1 jockeys, I read all night long searching for views on them and all I could find was T1 stirring up crap.
I kinda had the idea that the msd was what causing me to fry the igniters in the stock distributors, but I like the way the car runs with the msd compared to stock , so thats why I decided to take the full msd plunge, msd is not gonna fry msd correct? hope I will love my decision in doing this. so now my ignition setup will be MSD PRO DISTRIBUTOR, BLASTER SC COIL and DRIVER, MSD SCI-L IGNITION AMP, MSD WIRES, AND NGK 9 PLUGS, wish me luck either way cant beat lifetime warranty.

Re: my latest build(aways boosted)
i took a 100 dollar loss on my 6al box just to get ethe damn thing out of my sight. I blew the ELD and could not keep a fuse box in the car without immediatley blowing the ELD again. I never spoke to one person who ever A) heard of such thing or B) could tell me anything about it. all i know is car worked fine then i added MSD and it was never right again. I even called MSD on the phone and had them walk me through the install in case i just did something stupid one of the times i reinstalled it. MSD box worked fine but the car did not like it one bit.

I also use methanol injection daily driving I use the 37% windshield washer fluid, and racing I use 100% methanol.
I have met a few guys that have show dragsters they told me to check local air strips for race fuel, I havent done that yet.

our savour when it come to buying gas off post are fuel coupons, you buy it on post at price of gas in the us, and use it off post.
catch= only 2 gas stations accept it, ESSO and ARAL on the autobahn. downside filling out all those coupons. running out of gas in a area that don't accept it.
so the point of all this is no matter how expensive gas is in the US it is 4 times the price in Germany
