I like those rims that you put up Dan. You may want to look at strut tower braces and sway bars before you go for headers. That way you can control all of that power you are going to be putting down.

Ok gents, time to see what we're all made of. Next Saturday at Hitech motorsport they are having a Dyno day, 3 pulls for $50. You can find more information here: http://forum.mnautox.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8709

I'm going and just so we can get some numbers I am going to shame Dan into it. We both have the same mods with a few small differences so the numbers should be pretty close.

Any of you 3rd gen guys going to see what you got? Jorge I know you want to see what that pulley did for your performance! Ken, you need a baseline for when you get some mods on that thing. Brian, I know this will be the start of mods to add HP, no more lens mods for you!!

I'd even be interested to see what Luke has in that beast of his. He'll win the overall shootout, but he has 2 cylinders and god knows what else on us.

This Sunday it is looking like everyone is going to Jorge's house around 12:30 or 1 to work on Dan's car and just generally hang out. BBQ may happen as I know from personal experience that his grill is full of gas and he lives near a grocery store.

If you need his address just send him a PM and he will give it to you.

I GOT MY FIRST BOX"O"CRUD!!!!! (from Woot - all cost me $1)

It contains the following:

1 x empty carton for a power squid
1x Handi-Light (basically a light up bracelet)
1x Potato Gun
1x Motora BT headset, complete with charger and instructions (untested)
1x iPod case
1x Radio controlled watch (one of those we'll set the time automagically for you)
1x Pocket Dock (Basically it's an iPod to firewire converter)
1x Household tool kit
1x package of gauss (maybe in case Icut myself opening the soggy wet box?)
1x new pair of Alienware earbuds (missing the MP3 player out of the package though)
2x softball-size black orbs that have something about dust bunnies written on the side. It looks as if it's one of those wobbly-ball things.
1x Dog patiently waiting by the door for me to get home (since strangers were there earlier but did not come in to pet him - aka Postman)


And the grand prize of them all - A Stunt Kitty (Well... it's a remote, and it makes the cat go crazy - so that's what it must be.

i'll tag along for the shootout and the meet. but like i said, 4 gears and 225 bhp, i'd rather not try to race anyone. i'm all show no go baby
btw, i ordered some stuff, so when it comes it'll make my car a little easier to look at. still waiting for it to arrive

george, pm me your address please. i'll pass it on if you dont mind. i think one of the problems why our meets never turn out 100% is cause people dunno where theyre going

nothing on the agenda yet. i know i am going to wash the car and put at least one coat of polish on it. i might even clean and condition the leather if i start feeling really frisky.

it really depends on how i feel. as of right now i feel like bung, so i might just take a tylenol PM and sleep the day away.

For those of you that were waiting to register for the autocross, you just missed the boat. I just read on their forums that the first two events are booked solid and they have taken as many entrants as they can.
