Well your overseas right now right? I'm sure you'll tack on some miles when you return.

yeah i cheated 5 months lol in my rsx i was averaging 10k a year.

oh yeahh i plan on going to okc for a dyno run before my turbo at sbd, just to see how much increase and dallas for formula D and SD, ca to go pick up my dog at my familys house and of course take a nice vacation over there now that i think about it its kind of scary driving that far on turboed. i definitely wait to go to cali once break in is done and there are 0 issues.

i need to find shops that have installed FBM kits before that are in OK or northern texas when i get back cause i want to install it myself but wanted to get it done absolutely right and wont mind paying a few extra dollars for that comfort.

From the pictures I've seen it doesn't look too bad. But I fully understand you concern. It is my experience once work is done to the car, it doesn't stop haha.

Yeah it doesnt the only thing im worried about is my patience with the fuel pump the oil pan removal. everything else seems simple. this is also my first turbo and install, and once i am back in altus i wont have help so itll be all by myself. THE BIG PLUS SIDE THOUGH my base has a auto hobby shop it has lifts everything can imagine not super high tech but it has all the essentials. So i will have that big advantage over most people

So does Tinker. The auto hobby shops on most bases are pretty nice, especially for the price. Ours only let's you use lifts for oil changes though. I tried to get in there on a lift once to do some work on my old Eclipse... I was denied lol.

The plan is to meet at the Warren Theatre between 8:00-8:30 and meet the N. Texas guys at a Casino near Davis about 10:00-10:30 then onto the mountains.
