Well its been a while since the last update and the cars been through hell and back. It got its second car accindent totalling it again, which is why the front end is blue now. But it got crazy fast too. Once i got the boost cranked up it came alive.... and then blew up 10000 miles later. The second motor finally poped, but not before smoking a WRX, C5 Vette, and a new EVO 8. Plans now are a new motor (again) and a little timing retard to prevent against another un-timley motor swap. It should be up and runnin for this race season within the next month or so.

Its back on the road again!!! finally!!! Finished up the motor rebuild and working on the break-in. Still need to fine tune the AFC but after that it'll be back up to 20psi or so again and back to the track!!!
