Couple shakedown passes *video* A few problems in the first 60 feet but she picked up allright after that. Just wanted to share the vids to those who have seen me try to figure out what was going on with the car.
Once again, HUGE thanks to John Meaney for taking time to diagnose the problem and get me the right parts to fix it and take a big step in the right direction.

Got a few local grudge matches so I can't post up what it went but it wasn't bad for just the wastegate spring boost. It wasn't anything great obviously due to the early problems but vas is das /german.

What exhaust is that? That seems like a pretty loud turbo car.
