yup, Yesterday (9-4) i was at the dyno day in buffallo. I saw a NYspeed sticker on (i think i remember right) a yellow M3. thought i’d check out your guys site. looks good!

anyways, about me. if you were at the dyno day you prob saw an old beatup volvo, with nitrous. thats my daily/beater for now. i put down 133 hp and 185 ft/lbs on spray. its slow, loud, and ugly. and i love it :).

my other car is a 92 eagle talon TSI AWD. it is my project car and when finished should be in the low 10’s at the quarter mile. shes getting a built 2.4, gt45 turbo, stage III buschur head, ect ect ect… the car is a pain in my ass, but i love her too. maybe later ill get some pics up of both of my cars and my dyno sheet.

hahahaha, the volvo is mint… and my welding skills pwn you all…

suprisingly the motor has been taking the nitrous in step. i havent had any problems with it since the install (im knocking on my desk right now). i think as soon as i get my new DD for this winter, im gonna take it to the track with a 150 shot and see if she makes it down to the end
