Fast, but 5 months after starting my turbo install, I still have things to fix |
| Upcoming |
Fix electrical problems, fix oil drips, fix coolant drips, fix overheating under high boost, and figure out what happened to my perfect idle. |

| Comments |
Above hp/torque numbers are first dyno run, expect another 20rwhp out of current setup with more tuning. |
| Upcoming |
turbo setup needs a lot more tuning. Going to FMIII style air box, possibly to a TEC-II setup. |

| Comments |
Car is deliberately left with few external mods to avoid attention.
One day that may change; I really like the Racing Beat nose...
Car has undergone further tuning since last dyno run. Playing with the
timing makes quite a difference! |
