Z-Beater, we were talking about this last night and came to the conclusion that you're just worried about how bad Blue is going to stomp his butt into the ground.
I don't think Zbeater is too worried about beating Blue

Wow everything is looking good, Not to be a dick, but why are the the intake runners on the lower intake not taped over? It only takes a second to loose a bolt. My turbo my has envy. See you guys soon.
The ports on the side of the block are taped over. That intake manifold isn't even attached, just loosely on there for fitting IC pipes while we wait for the real manifolds to come back from the ceramic coaters.

Ha, well I am a little worried. But I guess we will have to see what they can do on the dyno...you up for a dyno off Deena?
Huh, both of out tuners will be there!

I think the dyno trophy will be coming home to the WEST side, via Z beater.
P.S. Dont let me down Dave!
I will try not too. My turbo is just a touch larger but she also had a ported motor...

the REW has some good sized stock ports, and that intake will also help out. Dave's car is a bit heavier. It will be interesting. Dave is using a different IC setup and a slightly larger turbo. Both cars are running Microtechs so the results may all come down how good a tune they have. The suspense is killing me! I am good friends of both owners so I am not paticularly rooting for a specific person. Good luck to both of you!

i dont really think deena is as competitive as a 21 year old male. we get a bit dominant at times i just know that theres 2 bad *** turbo first gens being born at the same time which always makes me a happy man
