I'm good...

work and home-life stuff keeping me pretty freaking busy.

if I worked near you still, I would have totally poped by your work... but that isn't a two minute jaunt any more... I don't think the rest of the gang has really seen me any less...

no i didnt finish the build in time for it.... but the old ass dyno says this car is very quick through out the whole way.... he just thinks that we should be closer.... but in honesty it feels like 2 completely diff cars.... the biggest diff is he runs a 2.9 i run a 2.8 he has more parts

we have messed around but not officially had a run yet..... lets just say it is hard to tell whats what but it seemed it would be very close.... jonathan did get giddy when we dataloged... and a couple other turbalt owners (who have rode in edward) seem to think i would give them a run maybe even more....
