iunno.. all I can think of is house warming party?
Well, if Ontario members feel like a roadtrip, I'll gladly host one at my house this summer:) I just got a nice 16x20 deck finished, tons of space for everyone, music, drinks, and cars, what else could you ask for.

Ya, I still feel bad about it, specially since this morning I just got me a new (but old) Sunblade 1500 to play with at home. Nope, I've moved into the management world, I'm the VP of Business Development for Ineoquest, a Boston based company, if you want a little synopsis, check out :
Look at you all fancy job man! Congrats! That's really cool.
Venges are getting pretty cheap now to be able to get a cheap project and do soemthing crazy and not have too much invested in it. Besides then you'll have something cool to give to your kids when they start driving

Hey .. I don't know you from before.. I've only been around for half a year. Welcome back.
Oh hey, where's that supercharger?
I sold the mounting assembly a few years ago, but it wouldn't be too hard to make a new one At 5-6PSI, non-intercooled I hit 200HP and 200lb/torque at the wheels on the dyno, up from a stock 120hp and 120lb/torque at the wheels. Of course I had tons of other mods (fuel, exhaust, etc.) to support it. I'll try and post tons of pics this week.
Gino, do yourself a favour and attach a dollar amount to it else you'll get a billion questions from people who just don't understand that HP costs real $.
So your gonna build up another one eh?
I'm thinking of modding one I have myself.. but it's getting a straight 6 swap.. the rest i'll leave to everyone elses imagination.

well I dont know ya I've only been on for a while but it seems you really know what you're doing. How much did the whole SC set up cost you?
More then anyone would like to spend It's a long story (as Dave can attest to), including buying a "supposed" kit from TKT (Thomas Knight Turbo) for 3500$US, which was a piece of crap, ended-up making my own mounting assembly, custom pistons, complete tranny upgrade, full fuel system upgrade (using Ford 30# injectors), full exhaust setup, etc.. In the end I spent about 10K-12k easy, which includes a spare engine to work on, garage time, dyno time, etc..
If I was going to do it again, probably could be done for about 4-5k, but I'd much rather go the turbo route instead now.
I did find some interesting things along the way, for example, with 30# injectors, and no SAFC (or other means to lean it out), when at WOT, the tranny won't shift, funny hitting the rev limiter and just staying there
Also, my first set of custom pistons had a few kinks, with them slightly clearing the top of the deck, etc.. etc.. But hey, half the fun is in the build
