So ya, finally dropped the car and got to drive it up the road a few times with no insurance and looking like this: http://www.resizeme.com/userimages/turbodtalon1g/563/jim's%20car%20001.jpg
I swear, i haven't tuned the car at all, and i didn't go past 60% throttle, but when i was driving at 2500 in first, then moved the pedal down to between 40-60% the turbo spooled up at 3500 and the tires broke loose, the car's front end went side to side, so i hit second and pushed on the gas alittle, and the tires chirped and the car lurched forward. I was so scrurred afterwords. My friend was laughing at me becuase he watched my face when i was driving. The funny part is, i did this in front of my next door neighbors house and they were outside in their driveway watching me (two old ladies with white hair).
It's a daym shame that i have to take the engine down again to do a headgasket install with arp studs, and a 3 angle valve job.
