first time at the track with new engine.

Well Tonight was my first time at the track with the eclipse since I got it running right. Realy kinda dissapointed best time of the night was a 16.3 @85mph with a full cat back, injen intake, and boost at 14psi. I just couldnt hook up and get any traction! DANG FWD!!!!! (or maybe I just cant drive) Well anyway despite the crappy time, I met some pretty cool people, for some reason didnt catch the names, they said they were on the board here at dsmtuners not a bad turn out as far as dsm's go I think there were about 5 or 6 of us there. Overall not a bad night just really disappointed with the run. but I did get to wheel hop and spin all the way to a broken front motor mount YAY!!!! So that was my night, just thought Id share with you guys.

Alex in vegas a.k.a. seventh gate of hell. (yeah, it's that hot)
