I don't think you can go horribly wrong with either a bb hta green, bbk, garret 30R, or even stock ix turbo on e85. All should be fun times. Pair any of them on a 2.4 and it will be smiles all day.

Glad I am still so slow that I can't outdrive the stock turbo yet. Unless it cooks I figure I have a good 3/4 years before that's the only thing holding me back. By then they'll be a lot more data on the EFRs, the BB BBK's etc. Plus they will be some new hotness by then. Great time to track these cars

Sorry to get off topic, but yeah, what Keith said. As for the 2.4, I've only heard of someone going to a 2.4 because they couldn't keep their 2.0 from blowing up!

LOL. That's most certainly true.

When did you change your name?

Keith, how much power are you running on the track? I can't even imagine how fast your car must be now...

I haven't been back out on the road course since the bump up in power. With boost turned all the way down it is right around 500 hp with the fp black. I'm working on getting a IX and building that more for road course and just going with a different direction with the white car.
