    Dropped my valve cover off at the powder coater. Decided to go with silver with lots of sparkles. Pictures don't do it justice. Also started intercooler piping.

        Well festiva lovers, i haven't updated this in awhile, but the car has been running and driving for about 1 month now. Had a Ebay manifold cut and rewelded with a k04 flange. All welds were reinforced. Custom 3 inch down pipe to custom 2.5 inch exhaust. Got a Megasquirt pnp2 ecu. Tuned by me on 15 psi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5dcPCWZ1L0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnoWjAtxb5A Two videos of my best run on Sunday 4/6/2014. Ran a 12.7 at 113 MPH

                Some people like to read fiction,I prefer to read repair manuals. Weird I know-

                        4k miles of nothing but 15psi and revlimiter. I had an injector that was clogged causing detonation and heat, lots of heat. now its time for fully forged internals.

                          Nothing better to motivate you for upgrades than breaking parts.
