Missed monkeyevo on Saturday, but met Pete in a red IX / fp green out there on Sunday....I'll have vids up tonight.

Car performed flawlessly thanks to the Eladio's hard work at H1 Performance. Didn't leak a single drop of go fast juice (oils / coolant). Pushed the Advan ad08's to lap times in the 2:47 range and the Continentals to lap times in the 2:41 range. All temps stayed in check, and the Continentals never lost grip at 10/10ths for sustained lapping.

Went through 1 tank of e-85 plus 20 additional gallons for a total of 4.5 30 minute sessions.

Wasn't very happy with my HTA FP Green however....the AMS 2.3 AMS gobbles up way too much air to sustain boost at high rpm I'm definitely going black and hopefully not going back! I'll have my green for sale as soon as I find a good used black. The green's low end was entertaining and saved a few tenths here and there due to not having to down shift in many corners, but after about 6000rpm the motor just feels flat, max boost all day was 27psi (recalled before shut down after every session) and the car is tuned to 30.

Vids coming soon!

Thanks, I had some help from Thomas and my buddy Eric as well to tackle the big heavy stuff.





PS: The car hauled azz with all that weight gone that's for sure. Also, that was the first time I have ever launched a AWD vehicle.
