Hello from Vegas!

Hey everyone just figured I'd register and say hello :D I'm Phil from Vegas. You may have seen me on other forums as I'm on darn near every car forum on the planet (as the same totoro001) and as I'm always bouncing between drift cars, one year I'll have a hachi, one year I'll have a 240, and so on.

But currently I've got an 87 GT-S. Been working on getting it up to a point where I'm happy with it, but it's getting there :D You can see my build thread here: http://www.driftcentral.com/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=7274" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks, I'm LOVING the coils :D I planned on running a garrett gt2850r (which I've already got), but after re-evaluating my HP goals after getting some more drift practice/experience, I think that turbocharging my motor might be unnecessary. My original HP goals were around 250, but now I'm thinking <200 would be just fine. We'll see what I end up doing when I get the $, but I definitely don't need 250.

tell that to will parsons! i would just keep it turbo if you already have it and run the stock motor on around 8 psi should give you around 180 whp with that turbo with no reliability issues. n\a its just do damn expensive for my blood.
