Damn, already have a name, photo, spec list, location, and a healthy turbo. Nothing to bitch about.:vash: You have obviously at least read a couple of the meet and greets.

Welcome to the forum! Car looks great!

18psi 06-02-2009 04:05 PM

Very nice. Welcome to the forum:)

TurboTim 06-02-2009 04:07 PM

Nice. Welcome.

The status of my seats is stock.

18psi 06-02-2009 04:17 PM

The status of his is "status" :D

TurboTim 06-02-2009 04:20 PM

He's cooler than me! Except for my intercooler, that's cooler than his. But my oil is hotter.

TheArkitekt 06-02-2009 04:24 PM

haha, thanks for the welcomes guys.

I would like to do a turbo upgrade at some point, i really would like to go twin scroll, but havent found a good manifold yet. Probably have a local shop near me build me one (shearer fab) since the work they have done in the past has been amazing. Probably couple that to a borg warner s2b turbo and see what happens. haha.

The status seats are amazing, very tight fit. and they just barely fit in the roadster.

TurboTim 06-02-2009 04:27 PM

All joking aside, it's a very nice car.

JayL 06-02-2009 11:37 PM

Welcome, nice car. I see built motor, standalone, other shit, low dyno numbers.....turn that shit up and show us what it can do. :bigtu:

TheArkitekt 06-03-2009 09:44 AM

yeah, had some issues with the tranny, but i think those are resolved (read: new tranny) so im going to turn the boost up to like 18psi and see what happens lol

miatalover 06-03-2009 12:02 PM

18 psi sounds like a great goal. Good luck to your project. Let us know how it goes. All the best.

Nice ride. Glad to have you on board.

+1 on pics. Have you got any side view pics?

BTW what's wrong with the hood alignment?

TheArkitekt 06-03-2009 10:27 PM

moar pics will be up soon! haha. my SLR broke and im waiting on a lens to get back from the shop.

as for the hood, the car was hit by a deer and the new hood was apparently aligned by morons! lol. it will be addressed very soon.

TheArkitekt 07-21-2009 01:54 PM

Badass man! :bigtu: I really like the stance it has. Normally I'm not a fan of eyelids but they fit well in your scheme.

samnavy 07-21-2009 03:28 PM

Just curious, why not get wider tires? Is there any kind of performance advantage to stretched stuff, or is it strictly bling?

Could you also take a couple of regular plain pictures? I still can't tell what it looks like with all the retarded magazine cover angle-shots.

TheArkitekt 07-21-2009 03:34 PM

stretched tires is just for aesthetics and street use. completely useless for track/performance. Wider tires will be purchased soon for track use (probably 949 racing and hoosiers)

plain pics will be taken soon and posted :-P
