        thank you. It was quite a difference from the norm. It's a T3T4 Turbonetics. Shortly though, i'm upgrading to a 62-1 trim turbo...mhmmm..

                  Thanks. On this specific setup I'm looking for about 450whp. but I'll be upgrading the turbo and the manifold, and other things to put about 600whp.. That's what the shop and I are looking to do, since of course I have no idea how to tune a car.

                      working with this shop called Absolute Proformance. They do a pretty good job I guess. Um, they are the only decent shop that I can find. They are going to tune it and what not. But I do as much possible work that I can. To learn. I have to get my body work done and **** too. With all of this, I hope to have that stuff(body work, car running correctly, no more upgrades yet) by june. we'll see how it goes. Where do you live during the school year i guess is what i was curious about.

                              running as of now, no. IT was, but it jumped timing, bent valves. THEREFORE, i am switching my valves, and getting some valve springs.(because i bought the sr motorsports cams)

                              soo.. i will let you all know numbers asap.
