    Well here it is 240k on the clock and the thing runs like it rolled off the line yesterday. Besides some janky wiring that has been done on the distributor it is in good shape. Hits boost, shifts as good as I can tell with no shifter bushings. I'm really excited to be getting the powerplant from this in my Festiva.

    Guess who is back! Me been a long time since I was on the website. Been on the Facebook page a while though. I'm about to go pick up a Capri xr2 tomorrow. Really excited to be getting upgraded brakes, transmission, and a b6t. The b8-me served me well over the years but I just need more now that I'm hooked hard on my Festiva again. Been drinking around with other cars and just daily driving the lx for so long then I moved up to Michigan. Put it away for the winter took it back out last week and I'm so glad I did. I'm hooked again it's great.

It takes a crap on local driving due to me having too much fun with the car. I plan to put a mega squirt into it

    Haha i see. Yeah that is at least a good cause for low mpg figures hehe. I drive my stock b3 like a hooligan and get 28 mpg city. So awesome!

    Very nice indeed! Ever figure out what ur low mpg figures where all about? Thats like the only thing (well my other projects and my wife lol) holding me back from doing a swap. Supposedly b6's and b8-me swaps give similar mpg figures to the b3 but idk if thats true or not. Alot of people exaggerate mpg figures... (cough cough Honda crew cough)... lol. Just curious as to if you got to the bottom of it and if so what was it and how did you fix it? Looking real good there!

    Ordered all the parts for the advanced suspension. Super thanks to mikemounlio and Advancedynamix for the guides and designing this awesome system. I plan to install it this weekend. Really excited about this and then when I get my nice wheels from a friend who is powdercoating them for me.

    found a huge muffler in the back of a toyota cressida I bought and decided to have it installed on my festi. I think it sounds really nice. It sounds a bit deeper than the video portrays it.
