yeah we had a small group of people come from LA to meet us up also. They usually drive out every weekend for our meets we have here in beaumont. They met us up and we all cruised out from there. We had a decent number of cars on the way there roughly 20 or so

Haha, that was my friend. She said people were asking her if that was her car. My car is like the meet up car, go in and sit. That's where all the judges were packed in when we were done. Trying to figure out winners. Man that was exhausting.

my only dyno was in the summer with 6psi setting at 157whp 158tq. I'm running 8psi daily for this winter. 10psi high when it's warmer.

Yea, you know what makes it slip more? If I let my car sit idle(in which I did before you rode in it) The clutch isn't as grippy. I think all the heat just makes my clutch slip.

I don't know. I haven't tried to look for prices on the Exedy clutch yet. I wanted the stage 2 and lightweight flywheel. Some motor mounts would be nice too.

wonder who the red fit is for?


And what i've always thought was weird is the fact that there are non imports at import-faceoff

I was speaking more of like mustangs and other junk. I can appreciate most types of customization but like i said "IMPORT" faceoff. Take your other cars elsewhere

Sweet, I saw pics from this show on Houston-Imports, looked like a cool show. I didn't know you were there Marcus, car looked good. That Audi is nice! Heard they were tearing up the track pretty good. Looked like a good turn out. Wish I could have went.

Well just to let you know, Houston is usually the biggest IFO event of the year. Turn out of over 300 cars for show. And a bunch more for 1/4 mile brackets.
