The port is a waste. I'm saving for a new whipple or KB and a 150 shot.

The port has no grunt on the bottom end. I always eat em up through 4th, takes them until 120-130 (end of if not past the end of the 1/4th) to come around.

the blower needs a fuggin heat exchanger with electric fans on the back to stay semi efficient after more than 1 run.

Eaton = Heaton.

That's funny chit! Drop the bomb and run!

There was a guy with a STS red 99 Z at the track last summer. The turbo was very visible just behihd his axle as he was in front on me in the tech line. I was interested enough to watch him go down the track a couple of times (Test/Tune) running high 12s, low 13s. I was like WTF? I didn't get to speak to him and figured he was in need of tuning.
