havent been to a track yet. it put down 221hp and 238ft/lbs on 10 lbs. now remember thats with a stock cat. stock timing. i have recently gutted the cat and i'm doin the ignition now. gutting the cat most likely put me over 230. the guy at the dyno told me he wouldnt be surprised if i made over 240 with just gutting the cat. so taking away some timing i should be over 240 at least. i hope to run 13's. i would love mid 13's but i think its gonna be high 13's. the car weighs 3000 lbs. i may take some weight out and maybe run with slicks if i can find some. its either stock tires or my 18's for now

Wow, impressive gains. I assume you've caught a couple of CL-S/TL-S owners by surprise

thanks man. i dont really beat it at all. to tell u the truth its been tuned for 3 weeks now and i havent hit 10 lbs or over 5000rpms yet. the only car i raced was an older Supra and beat him by 3 cars with shifting at 4800 and going about 66% throttle. i'm not gonna get on it until i get my ignition and get tuned again

Good idea going easy on her for awhile...I've read alot of horror stories about ricers abusing their turbos and completely ruining their engines within a thousand miles. You may be a ricer with that 12 dolla hunk of aluminum sitting up front connected to nothing, but you're a wise one :fawk:
