What's New?

It's been a long time since a good update to the site, so here goes.  Eric's car was finally shipped to him back in California.  This was after a fun time had by all while he was out to vist.  His visit included a dyno-day at Die_Hard Motives in Colorado Springs with a small group of friends.  We had three Mirage's, one EG hatch, and an ION Redline.  The Redline was the big surprise of the day with 236whp.  Next was Zeke's Turbo G93 with 178whp, my G93 with 110whp, and Erics Mirage and Zumpy's EG shy of the century mark.  Overall we were pleased.  All numbers were uncorrected at 6500ft.  Eric gained over 20whp from his previous dyno session, showing that all of our efforts did some good!

After all of the fun was over, we packed up Eric for his journey home.

So, what's next?  It has been a whirlwind of miscellaneous projects over the past few months.  We have continued on with Zeke's Mirage, aiming for the next level with the addition of an intercooler and misc other goodies.  My car has recieved a street tune on e85, stepping up the game a notch, we yanked the GZE from Leif's MISTER2, and dropped the Kbomb on yet another hatch! 

It seems to always be something around here.  Race season is rapidly aproaching, and with such a short time for preparation, we need to stick with working on our performance goals ahead.

Performance goals ahead for bbyevo include a larger intake manifold, bigger intake, and throttle body, higher compression, and I'm contemplating a 50shot of the giggle gas!  Who knows where I'll go in the long run.  Hope for a new photo shoot inmail. the near future.  Hope to host a meet soon, so anyone interested, drop a line, leave a message, or send an e-mail
