wouldn't let me edit my last post, must have waited too long.

so...

BTW: Over the weekend I put 550 miles on the car. After 500 I started getting into boost...ohhhh yah, this car is going to be strong. 10psi feels about like 14psi on my stock motor and I haven't gotten gone all the way to WOT yet.

BTW2: The JIC Bullet with midpipe is LOUD! My ears were ringing after 400 miles with the silencer out. With the silencer in it's acceptable, but not near as throaty.

I'd guesstimate it at about 13 or 14 MPG.

AWSOME sound BTW, one of the baddest FD's ever. I've seen the Saleen kill video on the communist forum when you first posted it, and it was so cool. Anyway, congrats and when you say that you got your GT35/40 from A-Spec, do you mean the guys in Chicago.

Srce94FD - Yes, A-Spec (the guys in Chicago) made the kit I bought.

turbolence75 - ummm...when I'm nice to the car, I think I get about 200 miles out of a tank...

I need to do some additional "cruising tuning", still a bit rich in vaccum...12's and low 13's...could push that up a bit more to help save fuel on the road...
