Default Well here are some teaser pics!!!

This is basically how my car has looked for the past week and a half. Waiting on the stupid power steering pump so I can bolt the rest of the nitrous kit on and debug the system.

I'll post some more pics once its finished and clean.

My poor car.

Looking good Jon. We can bend that blow down tube to route a little cleaner, as I have a nice tube bender. Yep, some washing of the engine bay would be worth about 10hp.

Best of luck.

Your car sounds badass heading down the track.

Black is the fastest color, anyway.

Funny! I was thinking the same thing. I wish I could hear it going down the track.

I agree!!

But I'll get it cleaned up when I finally get the damn thing moving again!

I'm not worried about spotless, just a quick cleaning.

I think so too! I just hope I can keep it under control. I'm going to start with a smaller shot then work it up to a bigger shot.

Good deal John! Can't wait to see what this thing can do. I'm not afraid tho, everytime I think, "Aww man Jon's gonna smoke me, " I remember who's driving and feel all better.

I'm gonna try to get this wiring finished up on my nitrous......I'll probably head to Roberts Saturday to get his help, then I'll probably spend the rest of the day or Sunday changing my TR-55's out for my TR-6's. That way I can just roll strait to TJ's when the appointment is made.

So I guess you can say my weekend is dedicated to my car!

Oh yeah, and my poor car is in dyer need of a deep cleaning. So I need to get that done too.
