    TT GTS at Barrett Jackson auction Palm Beach April 11

    Yea, I made the splitter in carbon fiber and do still have the form. Not really interested in making any more at this time... I also built the turbo system - this is my second one, if you do a search you should see some build pics. Top quality stuff all the way through. I'll post up some...

    Let's see your upgraded Crankcase Ventilation System

    I've spent a lot of time experimenting on both blower and turbo cars, and agree with Dan, these setups are the best as they do a great job of pulling the oil out of the air before they vent (they are full of screens and plastic mesh), and they drain the oil back into the crankcase. No emptying...

    When best intentions BLOW UP an engine...

    Sorry about your engine. From your description, I really don't think the length of the plugs had much to do with your problem, your tune was just too close to the knock threshold. Just because you can't readily hear it does not mean it's not there. If the plugs were hitting you would have...

    Car Took A Dump on the Dyno

    I agree completely, A leakdown test is absolutely step 1, no debate. Have that done and post again as to the results. -Dave.

    TT teaser pics

    Thanks for the replies guys. The turbos are precision turbo 74mm - they have a little better transient response than 76's, but according to precision produce the same peak HP until over 30psi, where 76's keep going. I'm not going to run that much boost, so I think they are a nice compromise...

    TT teaser pics

    Guys, Wanted to give you guys an early heads up as to why I've been so scarce lately. This is what has been taking up so much of my time. Built motor, big turbos, etc... Started it up for the first time this weekend, sounds pretty mean. Almost done! -Dave

    SUSPENSION FAILURE PHOTOS - Check your cars!

    I couldn't agree more, the Welds on the '90's Vipers completely ****. It's kind of embarrasing. Not to mention they didn't bother to clean up the weld splatter before they paint the frames. I re-hit a lot of the welds on my car. later, Dave.
