NEW LOCATION NEEDED!!!! After Lames got OC in a ruckus, I think it is time to move alittle north into LA county. I have some spots in mind that are SUPER CHILL. Anyone else down to change Lacation. Autobacs is a bust now!!!!!! I was thinking GARDENA. One cuz I live there, 2 because it is easy to get to. How about where the 91 freeway ends, right past the 110 freeway. There is a huge lot for the metro that is EMPTY on the weekends. Who else is down to start up the fun again? I was think of making it every other week too. Tell me what you think!!!!!

I wish i could get some numbers, i mean 300 is pretty weak something is amiss there...but the way its running rich, i wouldnt doubt it...
350 rwhp is a pretty realistic goal for the mods i have done, even considering its a stock ported motor...
with my future ignition mods, im almost positive i'll see some pretty nice gains (more spark = more bang = less rich)
regardless it still needs to be tuned...lemme go wipe my hand on my exhaust tip and show you how rich its running...

well better to tune on the rich than the lean side for sure with an FD. 40k on the motor wouldn't merit a reason to hold back on tuning, that doesn't make any sense, sure if it was 80k+ nearing the end of its life that would make sense but the engine is running in its prime between 25 and 65k. ive never seen a single turbo setup tuned so conservatively, whe steve kan gets a hold of your car it will be a monster. the t04 family of turbos can make big power, id expect around 400 to the wheels. whats your fueling and engine management setup right now? id like to check out your car for the next meet, whereever it ends up being...

and ya with the amount of mods you could **** out 300whp running on one rotor. your going to be 350whp at very least is my guess, otherwise XS was rediculous in how conservative your tune was
