A pitiful 14.5. Boost was spiking very high, timing was getting pulled, and it was 95 deg out.

Well we know the motor is strong. I figured your first pass of 16.0 was decient on 20psi, no MAS, and 3 year old gas. She's a fun and BEAUTIFUL car. Thanks for the ride.

Brought it to work today... Driveshaft is thumping on the exhaust pretty good, need to get that fixed, and the brakes are starting to ge mushy... probably need beeld some more....
Other than that... 110 is really fun on the street in the morning commute!

Ha! I've still got a laundry list of things to get it up to par, we'll see what happens from there.

Well, after taking a week off, I decided to fix the clanking of what I thought was the driveshaft hitting the exhaust...
opps.... In reality it was the rear brake line bracket that was loose hitting the rear axle.  no wonder the brakes got soft... I'm sure that big hole in the brake line didn't help any! Looking for a set of brakelines... probably go with stainless just for grins at this point. anyone? -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Nope, just a regular pair, but they'll do the trick.

You need to have your head checked if you're considering putting used brake lines on a car you're going to drive hard. I know, I know, these are DSM's and it's tough to warrant spending 160 on brand new part when you can find something used for half as much, but gimme a f-ing break man, cough up the cash for a vital part that you know will get the job done.

Nor would I put used brake lines on my track car but I really need to get rid of this scrap heap taking up space in my storage unit.

Thanks for the offer Brett, but I think I'm going to get some stainless lines and be done with it.

Stainless lines are on, fit very nice, very easy swap. Also got the stereo in, along with the turbo timer. Still need to get the 2g mas wired up and the SAFC before it's back on the road.
To emphisize a point made a while back, don't skimp on the wiring guys. I pulled probably 50 feet of hacked and unused wiring that had been added.... sparks flew several times as I found one that still had juice in it... plus two aftermarket relays that no longer served a purpose... what a mess!!!!

SAFC is wired up, stereo is installed, turbo timer in...
Plug in the ecu, flip the battery cutout back on... turn the key.... Still some miles to put on it to get this clutch broke in, but I've got a couple other tricks up my sleeve, should be an interesting SCDC....
