people say you get used to power
that only holds true to a certain amount of power
after that, it's always terrifying

I got your message on facebook. I'll see if we can work something out.

Turn around would have to be quick. I have clutch/fuel on the way and then it's go time.

Must be hard for you to decide which on to take for the day. The Viper or the MIATA!

I told you to either send me the money or build a dyno shop that wasn't 4 hours away. You chose to do neither.

It was driven until I pulled the FM3 and shipped it away. I don't need this attitude from someone who is perpetually afraid of wiring their 99% complete turbo car.

Update, I guess.
-Got a camera
-Manifold is on it's way back from Ryan (you're good people)
-Fab9 550hp intercooler is here
-Fuel parts are here
-Fittings, hoses, little **** are making their way here or are already here

I have 6 weeks of vacation coming up which is nearly all dedicated to assembling the car. Besides going to the gym and finishing my **** with the military, I will be working on the car and posting progress. It will be very rapid.

Do not post annoying things like asking me to hurry or anything of the such. It's taken a lot to get myself to put this car on the backburner due to more important things in my life like starting a new career and posing in the mirror to take sexy pics of new body.

Okay, I've been waiting so long for you to have a running car, I stopped caring.

No. Unless you want to come down and help me. I'll be doing 5,3,1 at the gym and working on the car the rest of the day. You can sleep on my couch.

Bitch please, you never sent me money when I had the 2554 or 2870. I had to give you 700 just to get stickers and a vodka burning box

Like you have room to talk with that pretty ETD kit sitting in your garage for probably a year. If you want my car done faster call Ryan and yell at him until he sends my manifold back.

Edit: Vlad, visit the diet thread and join the path to glory, fatty.
