^^... LOL! Werd!

Why are you suspicious of plug-in power? It's a turbo powered car, so all it does really is modify air/fuel across the power band and raise boost up from 18 psi stock to 24 psi. Dyno proven,...

In case you were wondering what an extra 40 hp and 70 ft lbs of torque look like for a Fiat 500 Abarth, this is it. It will be here early next week, and I'll be installing it on my next day off....

A little update.

Neither my brother or I have made our first payments yet on our Abarths, and we already have one mod done. Again, he got his because he liked mine, the intake that is. The great...

Here's a few good pics...

If I had never gone to check out the Fiat, I would probably not have anything somewhat negative to say about the BRZ, and for all practical purposes, it's a well balanced, nimble car. I have to say...

I'm not complaining, and I'm enjoying.

Also, I can't see how she got a '13 for $17k unless it was either used, a program/demo car with some mileage on it, she had a really good trade-in, or she...

Oh, and went to the dealership again today with one of my brothers, and this happened!

Ever since late 2012, all Abarth's are straight piped from the factory. And I test drove a BRZ. Quite frankly, for the money, the Abarth is a lot more car. Better feel, better build quality, better...

So far so good. Firm yet smooth, quiet ride, great exhaust note with the occasional "pop", only 82 miles on the clock, excellent low end torque and pull through the gears. But the best thing is the...

Came home from work one night and parked the Miata. Got up the next morning early and went out to do stuff. Ended up having to go into work late in the afternoon. Came home from work that night and...

Yep, tell me about it.

This...

In a brand new freakin' tire too, barely 4 months old and MAYBE 1000 miles. Can't be repaired either due to its location....

What build thread? I have yet to make one. :oops:

If I had the money, I'd throw a 12A in my car in a heartbeat!

I built two different 12A's back in the day for my '83 RX7 GSL and loved them both. I rebuilt both from the ground up and they made...

Was clean for only a couple hours before the heavens decided to dump a healthy thunderstorm on it... :|

Been running the Dunlop Direzza ZII's in the 205/50/15 variety for the past few months now. Why? Because I can. :mrgreen:

Thanks! Weather and time permitting, I might have something else happening this Wednesday. We'll see, and no, I ain't tellin'. :mrgreen:

I guess we're all guilty of that to some point. :teehee:

For a minute there, I thought you were referring to Phat! LOL

LOL! Thanks guys! I'm glad I'm finally able to share this video.

Yes. In fact, I asked him to just in case other Miata owners might be interested. My car was dipped just days before Miatapalooza 2013, and I knew I was going to get a lot of inquiries about the dip...

I know, right?! I was expecting some 24" spinners and neon photoshopped on my car at the end or something. LOL

Thought it was pretty neat. Played it through my stereo and the music has some bass! LOL

Today was the 3 year anniversary of ownership of my car. Anyway, I lubed up all the door hinges and hood hinges, hosed down the passenger side of the engine compartment as the overflow hose somehow...
