Installed bigger injectors Friday during my lunch, test drove it around the block (3 miles), it held 12 lbs, and kept spinning the tires thru 3rd gear, before I ran out road and speed limit. Pulling back into the parking lot, the cloud of white smoke started billowing out of the tailpipe with a sweet smell. Blew an entire coolant jackets worth of head gasket material out the first time holding more than 4 psi. Got a new stock gasket for $17, threw that in and now have to baby it (stay under 7) till i can get a cometic mls and Sep head studs.... Bummer.....

Realigned the Festiva a few days ago. I think it's time for a professional. My mistake was going by the sidewall... different tires on the front and back. It's pretty close now and rides alot better, might need a little more. And it looks like it's still getting 36mpg.. almost 10 more than the Aspire. The Aspire is just going to be spare car for a while doesn't make financial sense to drive it much.

Custom seat brackets made. And evo8 recaro is in. Feels great and a massive improvement in looks over the dsm seat I had in it.

Switched all my clusters out into their proper cars last night finallyTried to drive Green Car in today after it sat for a couple days, but it didn't want to have much power and I didn't want to be late looking for the problem so I just brought Chuck instead. Also looked for the passenger side armrest but couldn't find it still. lol.
