Your going after chris's car!

Not quite! But I do want to go for four digits.
I'll keep it a single turbo, which should spool/respond well with a 4.2L stroker. I'm considering a turbo like the 76S, 78H, or something comparable (and preferably ball bearing).

I registered the car in a show today for the first time. It took 3rd place in the import class in the Desert Madness Car Show at Firebird Raceway.

I need to get a set of Toyo R888's for my factory wheels for future track days to spare my iForged and Bridgestone setup for daily driving.That sounds great!
Let me know when you're heading out to AZ so we can possibly meet up.

I picked up my iForged wheel inspection sheet from the house today. Per the sheet, the offsets are +24 front and +35 rear.
Sorry Alberto.
The weights are not listed on the sheet, but I'm guessing they weigh in the low to mid 20's.
And just for Jorge... Top Secret FTMFW!!!
