Please excuse me if I revert to my Southern Cal roots, but ...
Duuuude, this Mia-tah is gnarly faaast duuude!
We got the intake all plumbed up today, subjected it to a sophisticated kiddie-pool leakdown test and coupled that with the Flügelhornwasserbruder regimen (I don't recommend looking that up). We then drove the car backwards off the ramps, into the street, and into hyper-space. Maybe I'm just used to it being slow, maybe I've been driving a Vanagon for a bit too long, or maybe the Flügelhorn made me a bit light-headed, but once the Smurf hit 3500rpm I was glad I tightened the seat bolts all the way.
Of course, at the end of the run the throttle got stuck, something made a loud noise, and now there are a bunch of leaks in the exhaust, but hey, that's what weekends are for, right?
More to come I'm sure ...
