That turbo sounds freakin awesome! Great job on the car so far man, I couldn't imagine finding time for anything with 2 kids and a 3rd on the way... I only have a girlfriend and can barely find time to do anything with my car.

Oh and high five for doing a burnout in your driveway, haha... I bet your wife loved that :headbang:
