The car is set at about 12 lbs right now with the stock chip.  The TT chip is set at 17 i believe. The new fuel pump is in there with the hotwire kit.  Im extremely excited.  Installing this weekend. The car is still a bit scary to drive. When i tap the gas she just go. Never experienced turbo spool this fast.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Lol. I been trying. Dude has everything done to his car, ranging from GN1 Heads, to cam, etc. Its so annoying to watch that pretty car of his sit there like it is. All he needs is a turbo(thats what's wrong with it) to make it driveable.  :O

I can go for that. My actual last name now is Jordan. It's been changed since 6th grade but I enjoyed being a LONG for so long.  And yes, it's a 3846. RMI huh?

yeah, it will actually help keep it a little cooler in the summer, but, it will keep the system clean and remove some of the deposits that are in the engine now plus keep the water pump seal in good condition for a longer time
