Sorry, my comments were all in good jest.
It just takes me awhile to warm up to drag racing.
What's a few laughs among friends?

Attached is a nice photo of my absolutely sick and rusted front strut bar.

Hey all. Looking for a recommendation on a good MBC. I have heard Hallmans are great, just wondering if there are any other ones I should look at. Thanks

No, having a 300hp fwd car without an lsd is not my cup of tea.

I picked up a 92 Talon TSI to mess around with and learn more about turbocharged cars. The car is fairly clean and should provide some fun once I get it tuned.

Can anyone recommend a one stop shop to get a wideband installed and tuning completed (most likely ecm link)? I have left messages with ziptie but can't seem to reach anyone.

Ppssshh 300fwhp is awesome ! Well, Except for tq steer and the inability to have fun with the car outside of drag racing.

Does the car have ecmlink installed already ?

You should let me take a peek at the program. I want my little brother to get into another gvr4 and I would like to see if ecm link is worth it.

I still need to get ecmlink. Is there another tuning option that would be cheaper than ecmlink but just as good? I am not looking for anything crazy. The car has an Evo3 16G. I have some Evo 9 injectors to go in as well as a GM 3in MAF. Just looking for a fun driver with 250-300 whp.

He was referring to torque steer on a boosted FWD. My main car is a 2004 Ralliart and he thought I was going to boost that.
