Default Patiofurniture's Build

Well I bought the car about a month ago it came with a Sebring M45 supercharger with JR header and magnaflow catback, tokicko Illumina's with GC. SCCA Double diagnal Hard roll bar, with some Willans harnesses. But most importantly it had 90k miles and was super clean and minty other than some dameage to the front fender, but it still had a clean title...I'm assuming the SCCA club racing sticker had something to do with this.

I hated the stripes at first....but the paint was in such good shape and so well done I didn't want to waste my money and rather spend it on go fast parts.

yea I've used that SN for everything, for the longest time...easily indentifiable and unique I guess. I figured I would title the build after my SN...even though the dubbed name for the car is Captain America or America F*** Yeah! its a toss up lol

"America **** Yeah!" is the PERFECT name for that project. Would be a bit more fitting if it were a monster miata or an LS1 swap.

Plus, when you sign up for a new forum, you aren't bummed because YOUR screen name is already taken. At least, it would be VERY unlikely that Patiofurnituregt would be taken.

Gave gotten a lot done on the car and tuned.

-Finished TB relocation, custom intake, and Turbo XS BOV install
-AEM EMS install and setup with water meth controller to switch maps when level switch is triggered
-Installed meth injection kit.

Dyno: made 190.7whp and 170tq

A/F and Boost


Meth kit



Ironically my friend at the shop gave me some couplers to work with the setup and they happened to be red and white. I still think he did that on purpose.

That seems pretty respectable for an M45, those look like MP62 numbers

Thanks, I was pretty happy with them, especially for the total money spent.
