Mario,
It was great meeting ya and seeing the car in person. Too bad about the red light, but you definitely left an impression in spite of the false start. I look forward to seein' you again next year.

Then a week before TX meet me and a couple of FL guys were talking after a few beers and said **** it lets go to TX, this was ecxactly 7 days before we left. Next day I went to my garage and cranked up the car, and it started pouring smoke. This is when i figured the turbo was blown. I replaced the turbo and front main seal and cam seals(since they were leaking heavily) on the car and was done by monday, I figured that putting the cams in was not a smart idea because i wasn't going to have enough time to retune. SO I did the timming belt and all other things to make sure the engine didin't have any leaks and was crisp, how ever the JDM cams remain on the car.
The differential in MPH comes from the fact my old turbo was on its way out. Now that i have a car that traps 147mph I will not swap the cams until I have an E.T to back up that MPH. That is no less than 9.50s...also now that my hoosiers have roughly 25passes on them which is their expected life (25-35) I might be doing a little something different with tires to help me a bit more
