QUOTE (SwissFerdi @ May 29, 2012 - 6:15 PM)  Rally setup looks cherry as usual.  I just noticed, 213whp @ 3.4 PSI...mishap with the run?Haha @2800 rpms. What's sad is the car makes more power than my 'race' car at 2300 rpms. We were tuning it, wasn't just a dyno run. Had to add a lot of fuel and was noticeable with just the intial surge.

I'll post more pics as I get them.
Took it easy the first day, Second day I started off slow and was finally starting to get the feeling back on how to drive on dirt, then the engine decided to crap out a little. Sputtering over 5000 rpms.

I get a lot of people asking about the AWD, since i'm the only non-subaru in my class.
There is one guy that comes to STPR every year. He's from the UK judging by his accent. He knows his stuff about celicas. Probably the only guy in the US that has a sequential dogbox in his celica. He's buying another one and asked if I want to buy his old one. I'd love it, but the cost just isn't worth it to me. -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq

Fastest I got to in that rally was 95, fastest i've been in any rally was 105. 105 on dirt with trees flying by and a sharp turn at the end of a straight is a little scary. -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq

I have a race this weekend at snowshoe resort in WV. Thanks for the compliments guys.
rallywv.com I just got back from korea sunday after 5 weeks... so i'm kinda sick and all screwed up on time. I still have to install the hydraulic handbrake, rebuild the exhaust (I snapped it in half last race), swap over all of the igntion stuff. Leaving thursday night, have to work tomorrow, so I'm going to be busy here soon. Hopefully i'll remember to snap some pics.
