    so I painted my needles

    yes it should. thats what i was trying to get at about the painting both sides. i had thought he wanted them to glow, which is why i suggested the painted top side and clear bottom. but if he wanted the needles to illuminate then ideally should keep to top clear and the bottom blue.

    i had asked some time ago on sf about radiator cap compatibility between the different radiators. i was told the greddy type N will fit as well as the power enterprise blue. i have not confirmed yet.

    so I painted my needles

    you painted both sides? id use some model paint thinner and take it off the back of the needle and perhaps thin down the top a little. that should help.

    large puffs after long idle

    sure it was coolant? its possible you just overfilled the oil. or sometimes if the turbo seals are going bad it will start to smoke when at idle for a bit. if everything looks cool, i wouldnt worry about it too much.

    maftpro is working

    go back to pg 65. there is some talk about it there. as far as wot a/f, i try to keep that 11.5 to 11.8 range. on the street tuning 12:1 is ok but dont like pushing it past that. run full time race gas and you could push that a little more.

    Could a Powered Intercooler Work? In theory at least?

    ice works. only problem is you cant do that at the track. i spose you could do it during the cool down period but they now dont allow people even to use ice bags on the motors. people got too carried away and just layered their motor w/ bags and the leaking water onto the track didnt go over...

    External Wastegate?

    i think the external is a lot better. first, there is less turbulence in the dp from the gate dumping into the stream. this is considering if you go open dump. if you do reroute the dump back into the exhaust, you can do it further down which would still help w/ the turbulence. second...

    since he has the monitor mounted in the center, i would venture a guess he uses a rear facing camera.

    Weight

    best advice i would have is figure out what class you want to race. there are many rules depending on class and it would suck to modify something and it be deemed illegal for the class. also, chromoly is more expensive than mild steel, but weighs a lot less. if you could swing cm that would...
