keep us updated on the progress, are you going to bring it to the minisprints?
| I hope to get it to the minisprints. I should have the major bugs ironed out by summertime. Right now money is the only thing holding me back, being in school for six weeks and not getting paid is putting a strain on my resources...
Main things need doing are:
New Exhaust system and ex. leak at turbo/02 elbow
New springs and shocks
New clutch
New tires
Once I've got that taken care of, It'll be good to go

Ya, plus yours is that funny automatic thingy  No, I'm sure auto in your car must be nuts. Pure power and no time to pause between gears and think Holy SHIT!! It's just straight to crapping your pants.

well, ripped the exhaust off my car today, cut off the flange from the cat, and tried to weld it onto the main straight pipe.... i say "tried" becuase i cant get the damn thing dialed in. my beads (weld) arent penetrating very well, and they are as ugly as ryan after a 4 day beer binge.
but i have it until 5 pm tomorrow, so if worse comes to worse, ill just tack weld (weld one small spot) to hold all of the peices together, and then get someone else to do the final welding for me. im takin digital pics, ill probably write up a small guide on how to build a dp/cat-back exhaust.

oh ya, no exhaust, the car is fuckin LOUD! i almost went deaf when i had to take a video back... but on the way home i stopped at a little out of the way spot... holy shit! boost comes on alot faster, i think it went up about 0.5-1 psi maybe (still have stock dp with the brick known as a precat). without powershifting, had no trouble lighting them up in 2nd... this is insane, i cant wait to get my new dp! and then who knows what
