^--All cleaned up.

^--Old crappy suspension on the left, New suspension on the right. Blue Progress sway bar, lowered, red poly bushings all around. Drives extremely well.

Had to do some maintenance lately. First the water pump was making a racket, thought I had spun a bearing for a while! It was loud.

^--Heater core leaked all over the place. Was making my windsheild fog instantaneously when it was raining out! All fixed now. Back to perfomance.

8/18 - Finally started tinting my taillights.

^--The finished product. two coats of tint and two clears. I sanded the taillights before clearing so they look lighter. oh well.

9/23 - DYNO NIGHT!
Finally threw the car on the dyno. Couldn't beat 4 runs and the sniffer for 35$. Went through the 5500 rpm redline to about 5750..oops...still in one piece.

^--Best run, 113+HP @ ~11:1 A/F, lost alot of torque from the 130+ max. Leaned out a bit from 4000 on to 6000 rpm to get there. Only gained about 4 hp..whoopie!

^--All four runs together.

Not bad, numbers could have been better, but showed my tune was good. Satisfied with the torque curve for sure. Thats a place to start, only goes up from there!! (DOHC and Compressor swap when i get machine tool time.)

Still gotta get the new turbo compressor in. And machine some brackets for my new all aluminum radiator.

I've been ultra busy with exams and pulling the engine that'll be built for the wagon. I didn't really think anyone was looking forward to seeing what I have. I'm heading home on Friday and I'll do my best to get ahold of a working camera, because mine crapped out on me. I'd like to see what you have going as well. I don't have anything installed yet but I now have the rods and valves for the build. If you'd like to see what the turbo kit looks like, I got it from Pimped_sc2. Not sure if you know who I'm talking about. If not here's a link to his cardomain: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2115769
