Cool and good luck....
I unfortunately unless something major changes wont be at the Fest this year.... I'll be floating away on a rig.... We are taking our rig to Nicaragua, can you say hot.... and i'm 99% positive my crew will be on it for the tow....

If something changes and I am able to make it, it'll be without the car.... We are starting over at ground zero with the turbo kit and there is no way it'll be finished by then.... Exhaust manifolds, intake manifold, all the plumbing, the intercooler tanks etc....

Our goal is to have it properly built and ready to go for the Mile in October.... Then I'll show Jaime the difference between quick and fast.... nine seconds is quick.... 20 seconds is Fast as hell...

I know about a ground zero restart, I'm gonna do mine this winter most likely. Little Maggie just can't keep up!

Leaning towards them or a YSi with spray. I just really need like 25 pounds of boost through this motor.
