    New guy here...

    Just wanted to introduce myself and my car to all you NW guys. My name is OB, and I live near Sandy OR. I know super exciting, lol.
    Any way I also have a Alpine 88is that I've Owned for a year. I just tore the sucker apart because it just wasnt hard core enough. . Mark D chip, 19# injectors, 2.5 exhaust, H&Rs, bilstiens etc.

        So about 3 months ago she rolled into my shop. Totally stripped, sold everything. And started over. . Bought a turbo, manifold, ecu, new suspension, seat change. And started on the cage.

            Turbonetics T3 T4 hybrid with the super H compressor, 6.3. Ebay adaptor, mostley because wateing 3 monthes to have one made was not acceptable. Even though I really wish i could have found a American made adaptor. Way to big Ebay intercooler

                Thanks for the welcomes. Here is a pic of the wheels that I'll be using. Ive been saveing them for a couple years. They are O.Z. monte carlos. Magnesium, 17x8. running 235/40, yokahama a032r. They are leftover from my ford sierra cosworth project.

                          Nothing has been tossed out, only recycled. Sold the perfect cardinal stuff to a local guy. It was really nice, just was missing the front seats. It had e36 m seats in the front.

                              Well the cossy was actually a Merkur xr4ti, converted to euro cosworth three door. Really just wanted something that wasnt so crazy looking. So I sold it to a guy in Canada eh.
