Default Props to Stenod Performance once again

Alot of you know the car went the track friday before last and there was a problem.
The Car wasnt making any boost after the 2nd pass and come to find out the compressor wheel had struck the housing.
We both thought we would have to get a new turbo and were looking at a S78 from Jose but come to find out Precision did come thru after many phone calls from Stenod and they are going to warranty it.
So as soon as it arrives back from Precision its off to the track to finish tuning and to post up some vids.

Thanks Joe.

Kyle

Do you still consider this whole thing a dream or has it crossed the line into the nightmare category? I know it's close, but damn, it's been a while.

I think ALL cars like this end up in the "nightmare" catagory for at least a little bit - if it was easy everybody would have a car of this caliber.

NA$TY - good luck at the track I'm sure that thing will fly!!!!

Actually...... your father-in-law has offered that pic to me for blackmail purposes later in life.

And next time we'll leave the Precision shirt at home, cause I'm sure one of us will be on stage for something.
