good meet guys! and thanks for the pics and vids, i do believe we should get some semi built lift action going on next time. (:
and i ended up pulling on coacobunny's (her name just slipped my mind) bolt on gt-s and the gti. the mods on the gti are i/open dp/an aftermarket diverter valve/ anough fuel upgrades to support 4 bars of boost/ and bigger turbo inlet pipe/and better coil packes..

pretty much hes just waiting for a tune and bigger turbo.. then hes going to be pretty quick.. (:

Actually.. personally.. I like www.flickr.com

You can register with flickr using your existing yahoo account... and without paying any fee, you get to upload up to 100MB every month... most of the time.. that's more than enough..

You upgrade fuel to support horsepower numbers, not boost psi numbers. psi is relative to the kind of turbo you're using.

Well...progress is being made on the build! Talked to Chris (Kris?) K yesterday, hopefully gonna send the car in for a slight overbore, new forged bottom end (apparently, it wasn't only the turbo that blew out...compression test says cylinder 3 is no good. I'll be interested to see if I actually had forged pistons and such to begin with, because I wasn't 100% sure. The motor's previous owner said it did, but ATS rebuilt the motor before installing it in my car...and on a CT27 and stock fuel, I dunno if they rebuilt it with forged or not...) 750cc fuel system, and tuning on a Hydra Nemesis EMS next Monday! That is, if I have the GT28 here and installed by then!!!! He says he can easily get me 300+whp on that setup...I'm excited!

If I go widebody, you'll know its me. I don't think anyone has Tom's in Texas yet. Hopefully I'll pull it after $4700 later haha

ROFL is this your car?? nice exhaust dude lmao looks like someone spent too much time buying cheap shit on ebay. you always talk like your car is superior to others

550cc fuel can do 300whp on a GT28.
With fully supported 750cc fuel... you can easily max the potential of the GT28 with room to spare.
