I dunno about that. The Colt might end up being quicker, but it'll never be this pretty:  Oh, and my first update... I ordered front and rear upper strut mounts, a fuel filter, fuel cap, A/C receiver/drier and wiper blades today. I need to get a windshield installed too... like the day I get it. I drove it, so I know, in addition to the windshield and upper strut mounts, it needs an o-ring and belt for the A/C, rear trailing arm (axle) bushings, reseal the oil pan and timing covers. It already has a Walbro 255Lph pump, a manual boost controller, Autometer Ultralight boost gauge and an SAFC. Once I finish the maintenance stuff, my plan is to get larger injectors, a front mount and a bigger turbo (thinking Super-16G) since it also has an exhaust leak that's going to require removing the 14b and manifold to replace the gaskets anyways. |

On the Colt front... Got it dynoed on E85 with 650's. Only using an SAFC for tuning for now. I plan on getting ECMLink soon. So... here's the magic number... 305 whp. Will post the chart when I get a chance to upload it. Next major mod is gonna be a stage 1 Sheptrans with the Wavetrac diff., then I start shopping for engine internals and a fuel system. Oh, and I gave the Caliber back to the dealer. They tried to jack up my interest, so I said "no deal". Since I work at Nissan, I bought this instead:
