I can understand where you comming from. As I said I was dissapointed in the car before. The reason was, that the car was terrible. It was rediculous to drive. To the point, it was taken out of the garage on 2 occasions once I got it home. The first was to have the original tuner come back over to tune on it more. That tune still was terrible, the car finally stopped hold 2K rpms when sitting at a light. The only way to get it to stop was pushing in the clutch. The car when leaving a light, would backfire, then even in 5th gear on the highway just barley pushing the gas would backfire. The car was no where near what it needed to be. To be honest I wouldnt drive it anywhere like that, sounded like a PINTO with no mufflers. The big difference on this is the TUNE and the person TUNING the car no doubt. With the fast 102 and NK 102 TB, there just hard to get right. It takes someone that is qualified to tune a car to get it right. This takes time and experience, which no doubt PATRICK G has. I have been building cars for years. I got out of it when riding sports bikes, had more fun draging knee at the track. Now I decided to get back into it. Am I suprised by the numbers, well yes and no, did I think the car had it in it, absolutely. Why shouldnt it put down over 500 with all the mods it has ???? The only thing I can think of to bolt on the car NA would be a mezler water pump, other than that maybe a bigger cam.
