My son bought a half-completed project, just got it on running and is driving it to work this week. It may only be temporary, but mine's still faster. He has a JDM WRX motor so will have more horsepower, but he doesn't have the intercooler plumbed yet, meaning I'm running more boost.

My son's building his out like mine (which turned out pretty well) so when he's done we'll have two cars that are more or less the same. His car's in really nice shape. Still has the 901 transmission, which is too bad, but he doesn't yet have the cash to make the switch. Window tint's a bit overdone, also needs some tires, but we'll get there. In the meantime now that it's on the road he can start having fun with it, which makes all the work worthwhile. Only lousy thing is that he really is faster than I am and I'm not going to be able to hide it any more. Once he gets the intercooler in I'm going to have to fake illness or something or he'll find out that I can't keep up. Crap. |
