cool. Let me know how it goes.

My parts came in to do Abe's "NB Input Trigger Mod" so I may build the board tonight. I bought enough to do 2 boards, so if anyone is interested in upgrading to the better input trigger let me know.... probably will take $10 for it.

Looks like I might not have enough parts for 2. I decided to scrap the one i started tonight because its too much of a pain with the protoboard I bought. I am going to buy one that is already meant for IC chips and has pin breakouts.

Fastcolt Got to see my trani blow. he was probably standing 30 feet away from it when it "popped".

Ghey. Who has an extra 5 or 6 speed??

On a better note... thismorning i raced a stock 04-05 STI on the highway. more or less dead even (i pulled a bit) with my gf in the car.

Yea we were! It was a dead heat and I was giving it all she had....I gotta get a mbc so I can just run my 7 pound wg spring / turn it down to 13-14 and dial it in from there. I think I may be out of the efficiency range of my turbo if we were that close and I was running 5psi more. I guess Miataslow2005 isn't so slow

On another note, I just got home from booking the wedding spot so I'ma load up the pictures now!

Here were what I thought were the best shots of the day....obviously there was a **** load of others but they didn't come out as I had hoped. These are compressed photos (1.5mb), so if you guys want the full sized photos (~7mb) let me know and I can email them. I will try and photoshop some of them to see if I can make them look even better...We'll have to do another run sometime soon.

That red sure is photogenic

Some good shots, I recognize the old gun factory. The ones at the loading dock I think are the best.
