Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
I really don't keep up with all the forum drama/politics as much as I should. That's why i posted what I did, so u fools can ebajacate me what to avoid.
Pete, it is good timing, except for the fact the motor was just opened back up in July when I did the balance shaft. Looking back now it was stupid not to just replace everything 'while I was in there'. You know what they say about hindsight

You know you're a baller when motors because "consumable" items.

Do you guys need Thai to show you how to drive it sideways?
Looks like lift throttle oversteer in both cases for Chau. Gotta be ready for it and use the throttle and countersteer to pull through. Cold hoosiers and a dirty surface will bring out the best in our cars. Just ask Scott who co-drove my car at the last event...

true dat, gotta anticipate for throttle lift oversteer and throw in some quick opposite lock and back on the throttle. it's easy to catch with AWD cars
Marc,
Maperformance, buschur, GSC, can't go wrong with any of those.. Most important thing would be picking what would work best for your needs. How important is the added tq. from extra displacement to you? You really need to know your next turbo setup to figure out what will be the best combo that suits both conditions well for what you do with the car.

the additional tq would be nice, but I'm sure its not needed. i just figured more displacement since I'll be doing internals and machine work already. i have no idea what turbo setup I'll want to run, I just know I like the powerband of a 2.4l and a black. seems like it would be all you'd ever need for road racing. keep the input coming.

More drama than politics. I'd like to see a reality show of the shop honestly.
It'll probably be 100x better than days of our lives.
