Just got back from ZOOM FEST, had a great time. The track laps were fun and I think I might have been bitten by the track bug. Im looking forward to getting back on the track, away from all the IDIOTS that don't know how to drive on the road. Next time I defiantly doing the PDX.

just returned to the hizzy! Did the PDX it was the shizzy. I am loading video now to see how it turned out. Yet again the batteries let me down in the second session We'll see what I got. Hopefully the mounting location was at a OK angle. Lots of rx's there this year. Very cool. And a ton on track racing as well.

im not sure if your jewish but im guessing you could get the whole kit CHEAP...but then again im half jewish...and half german...I hate myself
That's for the 325 6 cylinder. I can find manifolds for them brand new at $135 all day long. The ones for the 1.8 and 1.9 4 cylinders are freakin expensive. I guess they don't sell enough to keep the price down.

Glad to see all you guys and gals had good time at ZoomFest. Man I would have loved to roll down with you all, but I had to make some money. Rick seems to happy with his car. I went ahead and fixed his AC, and replaced his clutch fan and thermostat. Anywho, I heard Stu got some killer video from the front of his car. I can't wait to see it.

Zoom Fest was a blast. Had a great time meeting and seeing the folks from OGTA as always. I took pics but the camera fritzed out on me. Good thing you all have me covered there.

Andre, about that ride in my car, I think I have to clean the passenger seat out now If I had a set of R dot tires I'd do the PDX, maybe next year. As it was the parade lap caused the left front to burp out about 3 pounds of air. Damn cooper tires. Eh but they look good.

You don't have many options for a CAI. As the MAF sensor must stay put or you will have issues. You can do what Ant did or do nothing. Since the air is getting compressed in the turbo, it really doesn't help much to do a CAI.( Compressed air = hot air) IMO I would get a front mount IC ( or v-mount) and get a IC spray system.At minimum get the IC sprayer. This will cool the Charge air before it enters the engine. Which is the whole point to making power. Cool air into the engine is more important in a engine than cool air into the turbo.

Is the starter relay just clicking? Sounds like the ignition switch is dirty like I told you before. Also check all terminals. Battery and starter and ALT. A loose cable will wreak havoc on intermittent problems.
