Kinesis+Turbo
Just came back from the OBX run last weekend and have some pics of our new project car with a stage 2 turbo. 18x10 kinesis wheels, twin HKS 3 inch exhaust and Neuspeed springs.
Sorry for the grainy pics

Yeah sorry you couldnt make it out there Tim
No its not. We have 2 stage 2's on cars already installed. I got to use the 900 mile OBX trip for some serious tuning. Basically wanted to get the car running proper a/f ratios through out the whole RPM range in different weather conditions and throttle positions. The car initially had some minor problems but after the trip it purrs. Got some good stop and go traffic tuning and WOT runs on a certain triple digit bridge
was put to good use. Its a bit difficult however to monitor the wideband, labtop and road at 132mph.....lol.
I want to put another 300-400 miles on the car and make sure everything is perfect
The stage 2 kit is already out????

Thanks Guys
Yeah the nuespeeds are a bit soft and get alot of suspension travel. If I hit a RR crossing fast it will rub. I had do modify the fenders and it does not do it anymore. I dont reccomend these wheels with the nuespeeds

Yeah you definitely had issues with the railroad tracks. Riding behind you on our way out to the OBX you bottomed out a few times. Great looking car. It was nice meeting you and I am sure we will run into each other at a meet in the future.
I am not going to be at Import Expressions in DC after all. My car is burning oil and I am going to head to the dyno to do some tuning instead. Have fun at the show and I highly recommend checking out M777erlin's car.
