Thx God for the small amount of aftermarket goodies available for the CA, or you wouldn't drive it at all.

I know what you mean tho, FRsport is worse that p0rn sometimes.
I couldn't agree more! And i always get a laugh when people mention there is no aftermarket support for the CA.

well today i decided to finish the Home Depot Boost Controller and see whats what..well it doesn't work that good and bounces around alot and the minimum setting is over 12psi so im giving to my friend with an RB. but at 10psi half throttle it still pulled pretty nicely and 1st gear is a whole new car lol Blitz SBC i-D III on the way!

I ran one and would hit boost cut all the time no matter how soft I set it. I finally broke down and bought a Joe P MBC. I can dial this thing to .5 psi.

Found some pictures from an even on May 10th, I wasnt driving. one of the guys i sponsor was, his car is down, but i want him keeping up with seat time so he got to beat on my car all day. it just ran better and better the more it was abused. We placed 4th in the comp because of a dumb a** rule not aloud to have hands out the windows during comp runs. should have taken 1st or 2nd

The car is haggard , will be getting fresh paint and a new kit before summer is over.
