    Got any links to your CL? I bought a RL and did a couple of things to it.
    Thanks man.. the turbo set up was taken out early last year. I hated the fact that I had to drive around in BFG drag radials all the time. It was (to me) useless power so we took out the turbo, sold the turbo kit and ran it all motor for a bit. I don't have much pix of the CL, but I will get more pix of it when I get back to Cali. My lil bro is pretty tight about telling what he has in his set up lol.. but definately not stock.

    and ur car is part of my folder for my screensaver pics haha. how much pwr did it make?
    I'm was in OC, maybe 1hr away from L.A., but if the car is done by the time I get back. Maybe we'll do a little meet. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for using my car lol. But it did make 470whp at 10psi to the wheels.. then 540whp at 12psi I think.. Never went higher on the psi level because the power was already a curse. Even though it ran 11.7 on drag radials, all that power was useless if there was no burn out.

    Jon, I thought you were in GA and the car was in CA; are you back in CA?
    Sorry for the confusion.. I am currently in GA, the car is still in Cali being worked on by my lil bro. The car will stay in Cali unless I decide to bring it out to GA, but my goal is to get it restored for the So Cal Oldskool Car Show next spring. And I'll be visiting Cali on May 15th.

    I know what you mean about grip man.

    I'm only at about 330 at the wheels and anything past 10 lbs is breaking the tires loose. I'm just gonnat get 215 stickier street tires and keep it at about 350 though.

    No doubt! But width doesn't get you the traction you need.. you'll also need taller tires. I ran 255/55/15's. Sometimes too much power is a curse..

    Thanks bro, I'm glad the car's been an inspiration. That was one of my goal from the beginning, set an example and hope one day there will be more.
