Hmm, I got the wrong quote. It's there, somewhere, about the 29PSI, I've posted it here too before. Oh well, I'm not that worried about looking for it, I'd be happy at 10 or 15PSI.

I think the huge loss is probably coming from the small, smashed piping required to go through the radiator support. I think this is why Rhys went with an ultra-short piping top mount setup. Efficiency is needed with a small turbo like that.

That top mount setup is really nice.

The dealer across the street got a red v6 model today. hail.gif
Not the turbo, but hell its a good start.


I also snagged a copy of the book (which was not there on Thursday) in the hope, infinitesimal as it might be, that on some distant planet, on some distant day, I might [dramatic echo] own a Genesis Coupe

niice. i don't think pictures are necessary which is funny because we have everything mapped out in our heads at this time but still a nice car. i like black the best on that car though.

without the arched front end it's really really hard for me to see the body as more exotic than the tiburon. but getting it would cure the feeling with more comfort, space, quiet, it definitely not bumpy, creaky, and cheesy like our cars.

Well, I changed my mind. I've been so set on getting the I4, I almost gave up on what I really want, that green V6.

I always said if Hyundai put a decent V6 in the GK FL2, I would have bought it. I LOVE the 3.5L, and I'm sure the the 3.8 will rock out with it's cock out.

So, I'm now going to get the V6, Track Edition, Green.

God help us all.

You get the green and I'll get blue. Can't both get the same color.
