For about 4-6 month tops i hope, a TD04 then something simple like an FP Green or FP Red. I just want to be able to keep up w/ or beat Z06 on open track events.

With the same tuning parameters, I ran 14.7 @ 92 mph before ...after was 15.3 @ 88 mph there was so much blowby thru the crankcase vent that it smoked at idle. I had to rebuild it again and add a few more mods to get it back to speed and then some. So instead of gaining 5-10 HP, I ended up loosing 25...go figure!
Damn really!?!?!?!? I only know of one other place to get my block bored out at. that would be Genuine in Kailua. Anyone have any experience there. I'm actually thinking of going .40 over since the guys at Axis say that the 2.2T love it...

Go for it...anyplace is way better than SNYDERS, by the way a co-worker of mine had work done there and his V8 engine was messed up also - blowby problems .... 0 for 2!
havnt has any problems with the race motor yet seems to be holding up to 35psi no probems and when i went there the shop was hella clean so +1 for snyders
everyone has good and bad
