#260529 Hello everybody, I bought this car in Oct of 2003 when I was in high school. BAck then it was a DX automatic, slow as balls!!! I still street raced it quite often though :twisted: I eventually (with the help of freinds) did a tranny swap to make it a 5 speed, then B18 swap then turboed and have been through 4 Trannys and 3 motors so far. And 6 sets of rims, lol. This car has came a long way since high school. I jus recently had it dyno tuned, pics and video below. :D

Ricin it up back in the highschool days!!!

Don't plan on doin anything soon unless I hit the lotto!! Next thing I'll will most likely do is bring it back to the dyno and crank it up another 4 or 5 psi, id like to see 260-270 whp....

Thanks, me too! Im thinkin I might get a 3 bar then ask my tuner to crank it to like 13 or 14 psi, for a 116 map, I think I'd bust the 270 whp mark.....?
