You mentioned that the engine is nice and smooth. What did you end up doing with the balance shafts?

I have big goals for 2013! They are def going to be a challenge to reach.

1. I wanna be top 5 fastest stock appearing turbo for E.T and MPH.

2. I wanna win a trophy alteast 1. 3rd place is even fine for a stock appearing class.

3. Everyone that has watched this build. I clearly need tires LOL, so what i did was get Nitto NT555's for my street tires! and im going to get M&H 26" tall D/R's for the track!

4. Im going to do a Front Facing setup "6266 i think" in the fall and try to hit 9.9 in the 1/4!

They are my 3 goals for 2013! non are going to be easy!
