    Many pics to come, just waiting on getting them all sorted thru.
    picked the car up this last thursday, damn things a rocket.
    100% stock engine with 137,789 miles on the clock with a bolt on turbo kit
    I have already made over 50 WOT pulls with no issues yet. Raced a few other cars and no one has come close to staying near me

    I am very pleased with Spyderturbo systems, the base kit includes everything you need except fuel. Thats even including the K member!
    Comes with custom headers, not reuse stock or log style like some other kits. They look like an aftermarket header.
    I opted to go for more than their kit,got the tubular A arms and the coil overs and caster camber plates along wiht
    many other uneeded parts. But for 4200 plus a fuel system you cant beat it.

    Dyno videos and lots of pics to come
    The first pull on the dyno almost made me cry. The guy running the dyno left the tach signal across the engine which found its way
    inbetween the dog house and throttle. made the pull untuned to see where it was at and what needed change and it decided with
    to stay WOT for a good bit. Car was on the rev limiter and shakin the hell out of the dyno. didnt want to shut the car down since the turbo
    was full spool and it would leave it at full RPM with no oil flow. ended in a cloud of smoke. waited for the car to cool off and secured all wires
    under hood so it wouldnt happen again. Made another 8 pulls to end with a very conservative tune and decent power. Impressive a high milage
    engines first turbo pull ended that way and it still runs and has made 50+WOT pullls on the street :2thumbs:
