Will do, thanks.

Where did you get the carbon fibre look for your plenum and timing belt guard?

Do you normally have intake pipes on the 9b's when you make your runs? Not sure how much of a difference it would make on 9b's, but I know when Matt (I think) did dyno runs w/ and w/o intake pipes he saw a large difference in HP numbers. Granted he was making HUGE HP, but I wanna say he picked up 55hp or so with intake pipes vs. open filter on turbo. I'm sure you've weighed both options as you clearly know what you're doing, but just wanted to throw that out there...maybe the car has 10.8x in it with intake pipes ;)

Yes at the track (if i remember) i run ducting. from the front bumper to the turbos, and it does make a difference for sure, i know it sounds crazy, but on the slicks with ducts i held 13psi to redline on the 9bs. The car still has a 10.8+ in it anyways, i only got one pass on the slicks, and bogged the hell out of it.

Austin, you going for a faster time with 9bs or you going big??

Ahh figured you ran something to cool those little hair dryers at the track. I don't know if my car is just a freak, or if my boost gauge was that off, but when I still had my 9b's when I first bought the vr4 I swear I could hold nearly 15psi to redline and spike 18ish. I still think my car was faster on 9b's than I've felt outta my 15g's so far, but I've still got some tuning issues on the maftpro. Arc2 was sooo much easier, kinda miss it

Powder coat silver then water film dip CF then clear coat. If I did the powder coat black or dark grey it would have been more true to CF color, but I wanted a bit of punch to stand out more...

I know it's not a 3/S/GTO, it's my 1992 Toyota Soarer... I hate it with a passion, anyone in B.C. Wanna buy it? :p I JUST did the head gasket, hence the greasy handprints allover. I started it up, all was well, took it for a rip, all was well, pulled onto my street... All was not well, there was a cloud of smoke behind me... BOTH turbo seals went on me! And of course I'm having a bitch of a time finding turbos for it.

Here's my 92 Stealth TT. Never even had to clean the engine bay once it was so clean when I bought it w/55k on it. Sold it though :/
