Much more respect to those who knows what's in their cars and how their mods work. I asked this one guy at a meet about his fuel setup but he didn't know what the hell i was talking about. He said he just drives the car. um ok

And BTW, I can't hardly explain how most the chit on my car works. Does that mean I shouldn't have it? My pockets are deep enough to have someone else that has knowledge to build it and fix it if I *** it up.

thanks to pioneers like sgp and mjedens for pushing the envelope.

Once there we strapped the car down, put out a couple of runs (3), and drove the car back.
We didn’t get a chance to spray, due to a forgotten fitting and we need more boost.
The guys at the other shop were ready to go so we couldn't stay to finish.

Even if someone has basic knowledge of cars, you would have to admit that this project has a lot more to it than just installing a turbo kit. There is a lot of work that goes beyond the basics with this set up.
