Everyone downtown is going nuts with that. People are passing by saying good morning and then "go Magic!". lol

There's lots of signs that say "I believe in Magic" - kinda of like that screaming drunk guy from the other night "YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!". haha

That was the crazy white dood.... I was talking about the guy to the left of us in the same row by Nick with the Cayman Island type hat on woman! I'm sure he'll be there again.

I think Miguel's going to try to make it down for this one.... at least he's gonna try. We'll see.

i am guessing you mean the gt2860rs right? if so whats the ar housing, .64 or .86? if your running the .64, by just switching out the housing to an .86, you should be good to 20+ psi and run close to 300+ just told hold u over. the only downside is you will be running close to the turbos max efficency. and stinks they dont offer cams for your car, a good turbo cam makes a HUGE difference in the performance and drive of your car. ANd those dunlops z1s look nice, i remember reading about them when i was looking for tires, you should also check out the nitto nt05s. fairly news, but looks promising but just passing along some info hoe is everyone enjoying there day? I AM OFF WOOHOO!

You are correct! Its the .86 and I'm running 15 psi at 283whp. If I take it up to 20 psi, than yes, it'll be pretty much running at the max hp of close to 350hp. But instead of doing that and running the risk of having quicker and higher boost at the price of the stress on the engine because of it, I want to get the Turbonetics T3/T4 Hybrid. The boost will lag just a big, but I'll get the bigger numbers I want and it will be better at the higher rpm range than the smaller Disco Potato who'd already be running at max and I can turn down the boost. I can get the GT30 - which is another option, but at 20+ psi, I may pop her and I don't wanna do that. I already know someone who has.

If and when I go with the T3/T4 I'll need to sell my manifold and hard pipes too as they're going to be in the way of the new turbo. So lots of stuff to consider and of course, there's the money involved.... so we'll see.

Ok we need to talk. Have you been keeping all this knowledge from me??? Because now we can get into some good convo's over dinner,lol!!!

Me: That fuel ratio isnt right for that engine!
Wifey: Thats not true. I pulled the engine apart and it didnt show any sign of detonation.

Life is good!!!!

Congratulations, Lenox... Looks like a nice piece of hardware...

Noticed the education discount... That's pretty cool, too...
