Fixed the intake piping on the drag car no intercooler yet hunts at idle haven't had time to troubleshoot. On the flip side, it boosts. Kinda scary to drive, no power brakes and when the turbo hits, the whole car rocks backwards on the blown suspension, lol. Kinda on par with riding a roller coaster without a seat belt.....

The brakes work, there is just no assist since we deleted the intake hose. Just a quick parking lot pull, interesting how quickly the turbo spooled up. Wasn't expecting the whole car to rock back when the turbo hit though. Just me so I didn't see what kind of boost it was making.

Thanks for the help last night guys. I think everybody made off with a box of goodies, hah. Still lots more cleaning up to do and more stuff to get rid of.

If any of you have been having a hard time reaching me, I'm slacking on checking messages and getting back to you so keep trying, lol.

Hopefully they should be breaking ground on the shop this week.

so are you going to be at the shop on sunday then? I got to work firday and will most likeily check out the bbq thing but I take it thats going to be the extent of the day?

So zai what do you think about another possible V6 swap? May be some more cash money for the shop fund. Now I take it my V6 and other goodies are their and not in the land of LSD's?
