I had to pay my jew bastard of a friend $75.00 to deliver that trans to you and it was only 45 minutes away from my house. :-\ I should have had him deliver it to your house for that price :(

Yeah can't forget, hotrex did a good job with that kit. And I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I'll vouch for him because suprisingly it was shipped rather quick. Two weeks at the very most if I remember correctly.

The downpipe will live on hotrex as I'm gonna throw that onto the new setup with the new IHI RHB5 and the new ramhorn manifold.

$75.00? Damn man, you should have told me, I would have showed up late or something ;)

But yeah for that price he should have taken it up the turnpike more no doubt.

get rid of the FMU


sweet ride though. how does that spool? fast? have any top end?

Yeah the thing spools super quick even with some lag, its a good balance actually. I do a lot of driving, a lot of backroads and in town stuff so the instant response from the turbo is always nice. Top-end sucks, from like 5.5-6g through redline it feels like I stop accelerating but the car just keeps getting louder. So yeah, its definitely dead up there.

Early spool is nice because the turbo ------- roars even when im just going through a parking lot. This thing turns a LOT of heads, lots of ricers can't believe I know what a turbo is nor how to install one. Man if I had a dollar for everytime someone asked me "hey man do you think you could turbo my car too?"

Oh well, it's a daily driver so I can't beat the ---- out of it. I mean I tried that already and look what happens, new clutch/tranny...

Yeah these pics were over the summer. I've since then put on new pads and all that, thanks for looking out for me though.

I'll talk to teg, I definitely need some new management sooner or later.

Hey Stealthy, how about you hook me up with those CorrectInject injectors on the site bro? hah
