I thought I would get a race with something from Slowhawks, but no one went my way home.. Too bad. I don't get many races in my v6 Regal...

Nope spring and yet it still snowed yesterday? wtf? lol. Normally I'd have my car out by now, but somehow I knew i'd better hold off. No salt for me, damn fools and their salt. Have to get right on my headlight motor swap as soon as she's out. It'll probably chug for a half hour again once I hook up the battery. Ever since the mods she's not into being woken up after a sleep . '87 Gn huh? I'm envious

Yep 87 GN. She does alright.. Put down a little less than what I expected.. But I ran it through my exhaust, did not lock the converter, and it was PIG RICH. Going to lean it out, add some timing, uncap the dump, and lock the converter next time . I am still pretty happy with how it did.

V6 with Turbo.. Just how it is I guess haha. I was told it is normal for these cars to have a bit more torque than HP.. It might be a little high. It was my first ever dyno haha.
