My GF used to work several autozone locations, and 5+ years ago, we used to live in Loves Park and that was where I bought parts - so it might have seemed like I worked there. LOL We would come in and see Deb fairly regularly too but she never could touch Emlhurst or Champion's prices. :icon_mad: I've never worked retail. Always been in the field or in the office in Beloit area.

I don't want to wander too far off topic but - I also see that Rockford Racecraft is going to have a BBQ again this year. Maybe we should get a large group together and roll into the BBQ? :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Rich: I have my Map mounted behind the shock tower lower then the intake (heat rises).

Noted. I don't think my wires are long enough to do that. I did flip the sensor and put it on a foam pad. It sounds like I really need to get it off the motor and against the car. Looks like I'm going to be extending the wires a few inches. :3d_frown:

Good to hear. Are you using SD & boost control? Laptop or controller only?

I gotta say that car looks pretty damn sharp. OH, BTW Rich, that turbo is
offically a JT62P That's the designation I've chosen. the JT62R is the same
exact thing in every what, but ball bearing. I have found a source of new
turbos and I'm actually able to make them now. I just need to wait until you
and my other "test mules" gets some miles on the cars and a few dyno results
and I'll release them to the public.

Where's my "test mules" discount? :biglaugh:
Hey Jeff, will the NA PS reservoir slow my steering rack down? :biglaugh:
(Sorry to the NA guys, I love all Supras equally)

Retail on the JT62P is $1500... :cool:. You basicly got that setup for my cost.

the N/A resivoir will not slow down your steering :cool:.
