This car is not seeing a track. Hey Sctty did you keep the A/C on your set-up? I can't remember what your set-up was on IL.com.
    yes...a/c however it did crap out on me at the end of the summer last year. i either have a clog in the system or the door is stuck on the box behind the dash. i've been too busy and lazy to pull it to check it...i better get off my a$$ since it's starting to get too hot.

    for that size engine that will be a good turbo. the problem using the .63 turbine is that on a d15 it'll spool late and you won't be able to rev it like a b-series or even like a d16. i enjoy my 13t, but it does die off at the top end. if i ran an external gate w/ an electronic boost control it wouldn't be noticeable.

    Thanks. Yeah I saw the specs on the .63 and read about how most of the usable hp was in the high range and that just didn't fit my situation. Hmmmmm, being thinking whether to keep the internal wg or go with external. Is there any advantages to the internal? Also if I go with an internal wg could I use an electronic boost controller. I won't say this is a budget build but I'm not trying to go all out on this one. Just need to know. I figure keep the internal wg and get a boost controller, well maybe not, because I can acquire your services and have you tune as close to 300hp streetable power as possible. Not really a need for boost controller since I won't be hitting track or is there? Hey do you still make the Varsity meets? I never had a chance to see your car.
