That was the other Tom. I hit 217hp at 11-12psi and had to let off at 6.5k b/c that huge puddle of oil in one pic.

Where can I find the dyno day pics? Sorry to hear about your oil spill.

I think 230-240 is easily doable with a gt25r at 15psi. Looking at my datalog, I was spiking to 13 and settling to 11. On my second run of 214hp, I turned the boost up to 12psi and made a fuel correction. Unfortunately, I forgot to increase my boost limit which caused my hp oscillations.

What I can't figure after seeing/meeting some of the wives and girlfriends of the forum members is "What is attracting these georgeous women?"

Do they think we are all "sensitive"(read :gay and therefore safe mates after getting the macho crazies out of their systems ?

Or is it the Miata?

My girlfriend loves the miata when it's running and she can go for rides.
Hates it when I spend time researching and working on it when she wants to spend time with me.
She doesn't like hearing the money I spend on it when I do, she thinks that should go into an engagement ring fund.
I think the attraction of gorgeous women might have to do with us getting all of our macho crazies out nutting over car forums and getting rid of anger by breaking our knuckles working on the car versus taking it all out on them. Do our cars make us better lovers because most of us are good with our hands?

I think we should have a hottest girlfriend thread. That way we can decide who should be coming to these meets.

Seriously.. I think we need to have a meet in Northern VA.. most of us are here anyway. Our IS300 club met at this place called Burke Lake Park.. they have grills and tons of parking. There is kart tracks around somewhere, and also great bars for those willing to brave a night out in DC.

I think it's more brave to go out in the burbs surrounding DC when there's such a great scene in the city!

Why? Is she so big the camera can't fit all of her on one frame? Do I need one of these to see all of her?

That was very intuitive, unfortunately it came from the guy who had to explain all the penises on his thumb drive at the meet! lol
