    65ShelbyClone, what are your thoughts on an SCT Chip vs. Mega Squirt system? I have a friend with an old Superbeetle who was looking to put a MegaSquirt system in his car when he gets around to building up the motor and it sounded like it was pretty involved to install. I've got my...

    2.3L Newb

    I believe the previous owner said he set the switch to premium and left it there. I've only put premium in it since I've owned it, but if people are thinking the power it's putting down is low, it might be worth checking (Also, it was dyno'd on a Mustang dyno. :shrug:).

    2.3L Newb

    I bought the car from a fellow terminator owner I've known locally for a couple of years. I think most of the work to the car was done during his ownership of the car (I know he had suspension put in because I remember I was pissed when he bought it because I wanted the IRS to swap into my...

    Thanks for the welcome! I'll definitely have to check out turboford.net!! Just a warning upfront, I should have also mentioned I don't know anything about turbos either, so if I say anything that sounds like BS, it's probably ignorance. So in addition to the motor swap and the Garrett...

    so who all went to shelton sunday??

    I ran 12.685 @ 114.23 mph for my best run, with a passenger and 3/4 of a tank of gas and street tires. I went 3/5...one loss was when I couldn't get any traction after the sun came out and the other guy had a 0.6 second jump on me in the 60 ft, which I cut down to < 0.5 by the 1/4. Second loss...

    so who all went to shelton sunday??

    I went to the cruise and drag strip Friday and I spectated today, but didn't show. I've had a long 4-day weekend that started on Thursday with Ozzfest and was too exhausted to clean up the car to show-worthiness for today.

    so who all went to shelton sunday??

    As posted on SVTP, I was there in my 04 silver Cobra coupe d/d. I made five passes before my pro 5.0 shifter gave me a scare that I broke my tranny. Fixed the pro 5.0, tranny works fine, in the market for MGW now.

    Dyno!!!

    429 rwhp 459 rwhtq. My boost started dropping and my horsepower curve went flat right along with it. Sounds like it's time to ditch the stock pulley cover and get a no-slip idler.
