Again Kyle I can say that your ride is badass. I love that nasty sounding exhaust. I gotta see your car in person..

Nocab, I just love your FD. I've seen the Saleen Kill video and was cracking up cuz you lost him so quickly. Anyway, excuse the NEW-B question, but what are you doing to it in this video?

This past week a received a new Large Street Ported engine rebuilt by Pineapple Racing. This video was from the first time I started it. The lope (caused by the street port) is excessive because of the size of the port and the engine not being broken in yet. The amount of lope will probably decrease a bit once the engine breaks in more and the vaccum comes up (during this video it was probably -5). Also the smoke (white & black) are from burning off the coating and lubricants that were used when putting the engine together, about the first 15 - 30 minutes that mostly burns off and it will be "cleaner".

PS don't think I'll be able to get that Saleen to race me again if I pull up with my engine lopping like this...he is already scared of me...(actually he listed his car up on ebay for sale the week after I crusified him) hahahah

Bwahahahahahahha, oh man. When you killed him, I started to scream like crazy and was sooo hyper. I've never seen an FD kill before so I was excited. My kitten(Daisy) jumped up onto my bed scared as hell.



Thanks for the clarification about the engine, again, AWSOME CAR.

large street port.....i should say so. sounds like a H/C v8 in the video.



are you using the same FMIC that you have the write up on? or did you goto a bigger one, for boost efficiency?



sounds GRRRRREAT.......



keep us posted on the progress.



7sweety, do you have the kill video that you mentioned? i'd love to see it....
