You made some great decisions! Congratulations and the purchase of a fine machine in a great color combo. I have yet to see that color in person and the current wheels are a big improvement from the previous style. Welcome!

Sometimes I do.........I was running the stock VF-39 IHI turbo with Cobb Stage 2 Pro-tuned. The car was making quite a bit of power for just ECU, downpipe, fuel pump, intake and a tune. Didn't even have to downshift on the freeway anymore. It was a simple, affordable setup and ran great.

The AWD was a lot of fun too. I got the car to "drift" on time on an on-ramp, was still learning how to drive it. Road was slick and I had summer tires.

It was really easy to correct and keep going.

Will be much more careful with the ISF in the winter.

I will get another turbo car someday............

As a former owner of two different turbo'd cars (one car with a factory turbo with an aftermarket tune and one car with an aftermarket turbo) I'm finding I like the power delivery in a V8 a lot more. Even the best turbo setups had a bit of lag until the boost built up and really kicked in... but with a V8 the car just pulls like a train all the way through. To each his own of course, but I'm a V8 convert, lol!

I kinda feel bad, but someone had to buy that lonely USB :-D

You need a Supra sitting next to your F.
