The extension cord is for a battery tender. What changed was I got my hands on a hardtop, and just got it back from paint. Went over to the dark side.

Hey I was just wondering if the m tuned manifolds were all t2 flanged? I have an opportunity to buy one tomorrow and the seller is kind of clueless and can measure so I'm just going to drive the 2 hrs and take a look. Won't allow me to pm you because my post count is below 15. Sorry for the bump.

Spent a day doing some fun runs at the new track in Tamworth, NH- Club Motorsports, with the Viper club a few weeks back.

Nice to see her still going strong! Vids?

Well the journey has come to and end with this car, it's been a fun and wild ride, but the head gasket just went on it, and I don't feel like investing the time/effort back into it again. I most likely will be parting it out as I doubt anyone will buy it as-is without me taking an absolute bath on it.

It's been fun!

This car is too good to be parted out. :bowdown: Did the motor overheat? IF you're over it, wouldn't paying shop to do a stock engine swap and run less boost sell for more than a part out? :dunno:

Don't give in.

It did not overheat. No idea how it happened either. I debated going that route, but it's not a cheap endeavor, and still time consuming. I'm not sure I'd make out all that better in the long run either.

Nice, I think I remember that/you! It's been fun, but I just get the sense I'm throwing money at it at this point. Every time I turn around it's another $500.
