Default Turbo Magazine - Feb 2006 pg 58!

The car finally got some ink. Check out the article in the Feb. issue of Turbo. There are a few misprints, but a good article anyway. They shot the pictures on the first 4 pages of the article over a year ago, but waited to run the car. A few of you will notice my old Axis Se7en wheels, old engine bay, hood, brakes, headlights, etc, but they showed some current pics of the car on SGP's dyno on the last page.

I would like to get an article with all the new mods, but I am sure I will have to wait awhile.

Thanks everyone!

Sharif, I have actually had my copy for 2 weeks now (early release). There is a white 240SX/ Silvia on the cover. I have been waiting to let the cat out of the bag so people could pick up a copy. The pics are old and do not compare to yours. I need to borrow your photographer some time.

The car is actually is in the body shop because the hood flew up on the highway and did some major damage. The shop forgot to latch the hood, and I didn't notice until it was in my face!!

Todd, the best kill recently was a heavily modded '05 Z06. I pulled him by 5 cars by the time we hit 160 and then backed off. I also beat a 900 RR bike from a 50 punch on the highway. I wish I had DR's on. I usually race on the highway. Plenty of open road in Dallas.

Like I said... a few misprints. They also misspelled my last name for the first 4 pages and spelled it right on the last page. Gotta love it. The article says 625hp, but notice my sig. The car has only put down 615. They also mention a 23psi setting. The stock sleeves and headgasket would love that.
