The whole reason for joining evolutionm.net was a realization that I could finally get the opportunity to take my street car to a local track and play on the weekends (if that).

If you have some extra money laying around I'd certainly welcome it to upgrade my suspension further. I've already spoke to the local track rep and all he wanted to know was the make/model of the car i was driving and the mods that have been done to it...oh yes, and made sure I was aware of what VIP benefits were available, for a nominal fee...$$$! Instructional classes and vehicle safety checks are mandatory in order to qualify to track your DD on their two courses: Thunderbolt Raceway featuring 2.25 miles of asphalt, 14 challenging turns, a one half mile straightway, and, the 1.9 mile Northern Circuit is known as Lightning Raceway. This 10 corner circuit is fast and challenging featuring some of the most interesting and dramatic corners and elevation changes in the park. Progressive speed limits are also available (http://www.njmp.com/).


As for making a for sale thread , I'm not sure if I understand your statement. If there are already wtb threads for a wideband that's fine and well but none of those people are going to contact you if they have one for sale. That's why you should make your own wtb thread or even just do a searches in the for sale sections. A wideband will work for all cars so you don't have to go just to the lancet for sale section, they can be found in any for sale section.
I found multiple FS threads on AFR/Wideband gauges that answer my WTB needs, so
there's no need to create one of my own...hope this helps.

Alright sounds like you have a decent plan of attack. As for "extra money" I donated to the Hurricane Sandy families that lost loved ones, I think they can put it to better use

Next time your up at that track get some pics up

Exactly, once you remove the front crash bar, there is very little stopping the motor from becoming a passenger in your car from a head on collision. Life>big intercooler

Garrett, I'm a little confused on the turbo to manifold flange pattern on this. Will this work on Michael's manifold, the "T04b" determines the " (4) bolt flange pattern correct, and the T04E is the (5) bolt pattern?

http://level304media.com/level304tur...&product_id=52

Also...

Without the "J" pipe, this will be the downpipe coming off the five bolt,."Ford Style" turbine housing, that the description is referring to, correct?

T04 relates to the compressor side (cold side) of the turbo, the lettering could relate to compressor A/R or size/design of the compressor wheel or something, the hotside or turbine housing is that of a T3, all T3 5-bolts should fit that downpipe...


as far as a downpipe without the "j-pipe" for the external wastegate, the downpipe would have to be significantly modified, because if you used a 5 bolt T3 internal wastegate adapter, it would change the dimensions of the downpipe...that is if you intended on using that particular downpipe...
