I was one when already with the GT3 head and cam work... and it's no fun... and as I mentioned a while back, had my tuner known what he knows now my car would have come out a lot better.... unfortunately, we fall into the trap because we are like little kids... we want the new best thing... I just hope all these builds I hear about will still be running 6 months from now.... because if you look back at all the 3.6 build outs... very very few of them actually ran the way they were supposed too.... including mine....
good luck,
markski
Amen Mark!!! Well stated!!!

The car is being broken in as we can. Weather has been less than stellar here so we are doing what we can to speed the process.

We are still breaking it in, now that weather is finally turned around we can get some good seat time. We are jammed this week to tune with Todd as well as he is rather busy himself. So next week it should be broken in my way and ready for dyno time.

Sitting in the airport terminal ready to get home and finish the car. Though i still have a lot left to do on my brothers car. I hope i can find time to finish my own. If u come down suman let me know.

Hopefully the doc will guide me in the right ways so i can finish the car and load up a base file and get her fired up so i can break her in the right way. Then it will be time to put in the race gas, turn up the boost and kick some of the slower supras and vettes ***!
