Oh so thats your car i the parking lot. Nice ride. I was looking at your power numbers and mine are about the same on the stock turbo. Im in the same boat though looking for someone to will me a 6 speed so I can buy a bigger turbo and go faster...... Good luck on your future motoring.....

One difference is I have cams. For now they just make my power come on instantly its like "Turbo Lag? Whats that!" In the future I am hoping it will help me run a larger turbo. I have cosworth 272's well worth it in my opinion if for nothing else te cool sound

While the motors out is a great time to do it if you have the extra $$$ laying around.

the engine is perfect. it may have a small leak in the coolant system but i need to replace the hose's anyways but im going to look into that tomarrow. for the engine it only got new cosworth head gaskets and a kevlar timing belt. the oteh mods are listed on page one, i would have done cam's while it was out but the funds were not there.
