It feels like it has 1000hp doesnt it?! lol...Its almost a good thing to take time off from driving your car. Instead of driving it all the time, getting bored with the power output (even though most people would be happy with that much power) and want to build even faster. |

Well my car died on me pulling into my work parking lot this morning. F'n fabulous, but it was "good" timing I suppose.
It starts and dies, I'm really, really hoping it's the fuel pump resistor and I'm going to attempt the bypass mod and see if that works.

does it prime when you turn the key on, then start up and die less than 5 secs later? |
