    Ill have to reread as I dont recall what clutch set up you are using...
    its a southbend stage 4 which I think is fine for my application but i didnt break it in properly. I was giggling like a bitch with otis on the phone and boosting too early.

    So seriously what are you thinking for numbers on the dyno?

    lol I think if my clutch wasnt slipping Id be at 400 but its all speculation till we get it on the rollers. id be happy with 350. It pulls fucking hard dude. And its super rich so there is more to be had once matt tweaks the tune

    I took Gerrad and Sean out in this thing saturday and it was funny. There was a guy in a GT3 at the car show checking the car out. I happened to be next to him on the freeway on the way home with lots of room in front of us. I tried to get him to run but he wouldnt even look over at me.

    Loving how the paint is coming out. Looking forward to the dyno numbers. Has anyone used the set up in a e34 yet?

    More employees is a real possibility. We are 3 full time now and cant keep up. We finally got this thing on the ground last friday night. gerrad and I finished the coilovers at 11pm so we could take it to the german carfest saturday morning.
    Then sunday Sean worked his magic on the paint and i cant believe how nice it came out. He got 98% of those marks out of the paint from sitting outside forever in the PNW. I have a new set of 16" rs 003's for it but I need to build them. But thwe coilovers are awesome. I have it pretty low and it rides great. I dont think Ill run it this low as I think Ill get better performance out of the AST's at a more liveable ride height. Heres a couple pics. Now off to the dyno. Pretty sure my clutch is slipping though



    Then we worked on Gerrads car. He r3v'd it last week and pushed the front end in. I had enough shit in the garage to fix it. Still need to tweak the valance and get a kidney in it but a few hours of yanking on it and it was good.
    And then we pulled the front end out too

    I read every post in this thread today and two things happened....I've actually considered boost for the first time ever and all of my orders for parts will start with Steve. The banter back and forth is awesome, love it! Love the car too!

    Proof I read it....

    ...there is like 20 pages of people waiting to see dyno #'s.....so?
