Here's an updated picture. I love how the manifold has turned colors. I installed my STM catch can since the last picture and also added a sticker...

 

^ Looks sick!

 

car still is looking great,

 

nice i like the sticker! lol.

heres temp results of John's stock block beast. (93oct)

 

^^^Nice results so far...31 psi? Green run looks a bit lean past 6500...

 

Thanks B.J. ya. it went leaner on its own because it was upping the boost by itself. i think he has that fixed now though. the car was being inconsistent during runs with boost pressure altering the afr a lot. one pull was almost a full 1 afr difference without changing anything!

 

yes, very odd that my car does the things it does. The weather finally cleared up here (actually snowed a tiny bit last night) but it's clear blue skies and once the roads dry up I'll go do a few more pulls

 

Pretty sure he got his from the same place I got mine, redlinegoods.com.

 

Awesome thread and attention to detail~

 

+1 and thanks for sharing! I'm sure this thread serves as an inspiration to others like me to get off our lazy butts lol. My TB is in dire need of a detail

Be sure to keep this thread alive good sir!

 

I'm tossing around the idea of parting it out and selling it, hopefully I don't

 

Oh man, hopefully all is well buddy. You have a very beautiful TB.

 

lol, already?! What the hell??

 

well I think I've just been in a ****ty mood. I haven't even driven the car since I moved back to Austin and it's just been sitting in a storage unit. Come to think of it my mini-battery is probably dead

anyways it's hard to find a reasonable apartment with a garage for the Evo that isn't just stupid with prices. I found one that was 558sf for $900/month + $100/month for a garage... For reference I was paying $1025 for a 1025sf apartment in Kansas that had an attached garage. It was nice paying $1.00/sf but that's not going to happen in this area. Currently I don't have a DD, but I start my new job on Tuesday so I need to find something quick

what crossed my mind was not having the Evo (save $500/month) plus I wouldn't have to try and find one with a garage. BUT I love my car and I don't think I could sell it, especially after just finishing the build

 

I hear ya on the apartment pricing in TX. I was looking at apartments near Houston, earlier this year, with a (1) car garage & couldn't believe the prices. When I lived in Raleigh, NC, 3 yrs ago, I had a nice *** apartment...Don't remember the sq ft but it was (2) bedroom, (1) bath, nice size kitchen, living room & dining room, a deep (1) car garage for $875/month. Utilities were separate, water, cable, internet, power, etc...

Obviously you have to do what it best for your financially. But, if possible I say try & find a (1) car garage apartment & keep it. Car looks great, you have put a good amount of time/money into the paint & engine bay so far.
