Btw, I keep seeing your M-Roadster in your sig and can't help but think I need one of those in my life. Got a build thread for it?

Thank you.
No build thread for it on this forum, it's always a work in progress and being improved.
I can bomb this thread though!
Before I took ownership, it shows the front lips and before the OEM 3pc wing.
AutoX school from when it was NA.
NA dyno, Max Psi SuperFlo Load Bearing pulls w/ catback, intake, headers, pulley: 220whp 213tq
Ripped apart as I begin the blower install
Heat exchanger mounted
More test fitting of blower and brackets
Taken as far as I can with my skills, off to the shop to be finished
Back from the shop, all together and running
Back to the same dyno, out of the box tune, running lean, maybe a bad MAF-runs a bit lean, still showed 367whp and 308ft lbs of torque
Modded VDO boost gauge to look OEM and mounted in place of clock
This summer, big project was the stereo
Added metal chrome trim to speaker pods and air vents after the audio upgrade
So that's mainly it in pics. I have a pretty long mod list I won't bore you with. But I will say that the big power is coming any day now. I have Vac blower cams, ARP 2000 head hardware, and a cutring headgasket designed to hold 20psi ready to go in. I am getting a re-tune, replacing the likely bad used MAF and should make 465whp on a Dynojet, or 415-430whp back on the SuperFlo.
