OMG new start tonight sounds FRICKIN SWEET!!!!!

OMG I just started my FC for the first time since I bought it with a blown motor. March of 2004... HOLY ****!!!! the duel exhaust is so ****** sweet sounding... ... OMG!!! I am so excited.

I had so many fears it would not run or stay running or anything to do with actually running and sounding sweet. So many people had problems with their new startups... I LOVE ATKINS... this engine started right after about 5 or 6 tries, and it sounds so sweet... I never imagined it would sound this good, I keep getting chills just thinking about it.

Thank you everyone for your help, everyone who made this possible with their vast wealth of knowledge. and thank you Jason Atkins for all your amazing help in finding parts when I needed them, this is one of the best days of my life... I can't believe how awesome this is.

good to hear some positive stories now and then. Did you do the rebuild yourself? Any porting?

HAHAHA now you have to break it in.

So tempting to go up in rpm/boost.

I certainly waited about 2 1/2 or 3 years to drive mine. Its a pain, but the first drive makes all those days disappear.

I didn't rebuild myself, would have liked to but it was kinda not cost effective but its ok I am not regreting. Its a stage 2 street port from Atkins so it should give me some extra power, also a full true dual exhaust. Will be going CAI and also developing a forced air kinda system too. mmm It is so awesome sounding.


Oh is a NA too 91 in Brave Blue
