Woho, like a crack addict waiting for his dealer. I sit here waiting for Pat to come with a truck and pick up my car.

I'm just excited.....nobody is here at home to tell....


Strange enough, i've got a check engine light when I moved my car ever so gently to the street.....its not like I changed anything :lol: :lol: :ph34r: :rolleyes: :unsure:
good luck and we cant wait to hear the numbers you put down!!!

Cool. Are they going to have the car in all afternoon?

I'll probably be at Steeda today, but not with my focus. I got this little Honda Civic for a rental. I wonder if they will beat the living s**t outta me if I roll up with a Civic? :twak:
You... bastard. What are you getting at Steeda?

Why am I posting this... I'm calling you right now! :lol:
:headbang:

Cant wait to see what that T25 pushes out!
How long are you going to be there to? Milton is sort of on my way home from Hamilton?

I'll spend a little bit of time at Steeda, gonna pick up some stuff for NOS2GO4ME and maybe a few things for myself. I'd say I'd be there for about an hour or so, then go to my sister's place in Milton, and finally head to my hotel in TO. I'll be in TO most of the weekend for a course.

And since the course qualifies for employee training and development, I get a rental car, gas, and meals paid for. How sweet is that. I'm just a little disappointed that my car doesn't have cruise.

Look out for big guy driving a burgandy/red civic. That's probably me.
nice, give us results as soon as you're back.. i am so anxious to see what you can pull with it

:lol: Ownage. :lol: .. I wish i could come see the tuning hardcore... be sure to post how it goes... if i can convince my dad to let me put on the charger ill be getting my tuning done at steeda. be sure to mention any problems. i'd really like to keep my engine intact. :ph34r: :lol:
Ouch, burnt! :D

I'm interested in how this turns out for hardk0re.
It was a fuktastic day!


No dyno for me, not even a trailer queen. More like trailer trash today :o

My car smokes like crazy, only after its been running for a minute or so and when I punch the gas.

I had a hunch it was my return line, when I went to leave steeda someone pat brought out to look at the car said it could be the oil return because I routed it kinda stupid(he didn't say this but I could tell he thought it).

Probably is why I never noticed this when I ran my car before testing it at home, since it was on ramps the oil return probably worked fine....so I'll try and fix this up tommorow and hopefully i'll get it to run without smoke.....

Good news I got a base tune so its drivable back up for tuning....




Ah don't you just love working on your own car.

So how did Steeda do?

I am planning on taking the focus there Mid may and would love some feedback. Good or bad.
Kevin, as soon as pat told me on msn what happenned I knew it was your oil return.

they can be very very picky.
so what was it? oil return was kinked ? or too small ? hopefully i won't have an issue too.. was it leaking past the seals? did you fix it ?

Not quite, but close :)

I've shelved the turbo project for now.....too many other things going on in my life right now...maybe I'll work on it a little and give it another go in a month or so....
