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.

Re:She's back... finally.
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...

Re:She's back... finally.
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
