Interesting.

My cars doing great. Ran all over NW Arkansas a couple of weeks ago and never missed a beat. Still dragging my feet on flex fuel. I have everything but the tuner.

Hey, I'm really considering the SBD Turbo kit and wondering how it's holding up. I would only run the stage one on 91 octane but I'm looking for good reliability, any input is helpful.
Your car looks great!

Sorry, mostly facebooking for social media and less time on forums lately. But I'm still very pleased. I'd recommend joining the SBD owners group on facebook and check out what most of them are saying.


I'm around 15k miles or so, several road trips and a few trips down the 1/4 track. No track days I'm sad to report. But I still get great mileage day to day and on the highway I've gotten close to 32mpg. Reliability has been what I'd expect.


I plan on getting retuned for flex fuel. This is my sunny day driver and my hotrod is so close to completion that it really is neglected when it comes to power mods. But I hope this happens sooner than later. Ed Susman at EQ Tuning has produced some awesome results on 91 octane and has touched the 400whp mark on E85. That's got me pumped!
