you've gotta start somewhere. Keep your eyes on the threads.. gauge clusters appear a few times a year.

I'm guessing that Def Sik will be rolling to bam so ill join in . Not sure if there will be a rendezvous with other caravans. You can have my 18G if I can have your 207 How's your car doing? Clutch fixed?

O that's right, 707 crew has their own caravan.

Car is running mechanically perfect, needs to be fixed cosmetically. But bills need to be paid off first though.

It was the throw out bearing

good to know it was an easy fix. Your car is a beast. Seems like it was at EQ every single time i was there so i have had a lot of time to admire it

1. I'm not fully tuned yet! Stay tuned cause my car is in the shop for some work, an aps cai, and some dw1300 injectors.
2. Once tuned on 91 I then may get an e85 tune.
3. I am already in the range of power I should have even tuned conservatively as I am. How much power did you expect to see with my setup? I don't have external wastegate, I don't have STi heads and I'm on 91. I'm not tuned aggressively. Show me a similar setup with a lotmore power on either eds or gst dyno..

All good. I just think your numbers are way off. There is no way I'm getting 340 without e85, meth or at least external wastegate and 93 fuel. 91 is all we have and it's crap 91 at that. I'm interested what your mod list is and what you tune to as far as whp wtq and driveability.

low 300's on an 18G is about right. for 340 youd need to be pushing it a lot and need like every bolt on available. Better a 20G for easier power to hit 330-350whp. Unless you're on a COBB dyno that gets 320hp with just CAI and turbo back lolz.

Looks good Jon! Are the 750's going to hold up to E85? I thought 1k's were needed for that. dooooeeeeetttttt lol
