Nice! Coming out of a long hibernation?
You really need to bring that monster down here so you can enjoy it all year long.
Are you running 205's? You should look into R888's in 215 or 225. They don't last long, but they stick on the streets.

I really wish you would open her up and hit 400whp! Such a shame to see a built motor hitting powerlevels that a stock motor could achieve.

Mine lasted several years daily driven about 60 miles a day. And I'll admit it was a horrible tune with stock ignition. I think I may have had spark blowout based on how badly it was running on high boost. Wish I could replicate the problem again just to know for sure. Now clutches were what didn't last a few months at a time.

I can't wait to see your beast put down big Numbers Jon !!..We have different goals for Our tibs, You want a powerhouse and a 10 sec time, I just want a fast tib,but with stockish luxuries so my wifey and I can enjoy driving it and long road trips dont have the "race car feel"....Hard to have both, I ts to the point now where she complains about the stiff coilovers and smell after boosting lol..

Haha, my wife complains about the open exhaust smell in the garage. Sometimes it seeps into the house, then she gets really pissed.
