pretty good until the coupler form my turbo to hotpipe was destoryed after about 5 runs. No parts stores had them, but a guy sold me the one of his car had called it a day and drove back home.

And the damage blown240 was talking about was our drift team was practicing and my car locked up sending me into a curb and i went abourne into a ditch and shattered my intercooler and bent both my control arms, all with an a police officer friend in the car. Haha

pic from event (not me Chuck in s14 w/s15 engine, i took the pic)
