Well, we left show an go, cruising slowly(waiting for others to catch up) on Iron Ore rd right before Rt 33 in Jersey, about 15 mins from Englishtown. I turn onto Iron Ore in 2nd and give it a little romp.

2nd gear is 15psi on the button, and as per the log the revs were held at 7700-7850 once traction was lost. I ended up with this:

Now fast forward 1 week later.

Picked the car up yesterday, towed it home and started tearing it apart.

Not significantly more. The turbo is just fine, not a single chip/mark on the exh wheel, so I won’t be upgrading that(thank god).

It’ll just be a 2.0 instead of 1.8, and an extra 50whp or so.
