I just did my first oil change! I cannot believe the kind of crap that came out of my catch can.

OH Also did the first oil change!



Anyways, the net result of what I did is .... GOOODD LAAAWWWRRRD this thing is fast. My butt dyno says it's the 2nd quickest car I've ever been in. Number one being the Vomit Comet. I can't wait to get more tuning done. Here is a little video of what the results are so far...

That's a bad vimeo ID too btw

Dang Ben, the car is looking sooooo nice. It has really come around nicely. Cant wait to see it in person, but would settle right now to be able to see your video.....all I see on my computer is a blank box.

Ok, judge my clamps all you want right now! They are a temporary fix because what I originally set up was not working. They will not be there for too long. (BTW it's all just for crank case/head ventilation).

Thank you John!!!

Edit: The video is still working on uploading. I'm not sure why it's taking so long.

AutoHausAZ carries many sizes OEM Norma/Gemi/Oetiker clamps in 10-packs for pretty cheap - that is where I buy them.

Sweet thank Nick and Ed!! OK video just finished uploading again, now I am just waiting for it to process.

Edit: Video works

nice!! looks real fast for 15psi!!

Damn the 016 ratios suck... so spoiled by the s cars in my life. What were you revving to?

Thanks Ed!

Ya, I couldn't agree more Matt! Shifting no less than THREE times before 60 is rather dumb. In that video I wasn't going past 7000rpms, but most of the time I am not shy to take it to 7400 where the limiter is set. Either way, it's still lots of fun to drive! I will be going 01E once the 016 takes a poo.

The 200 20v 016 ratios are actually phenomenal. I'm actually nervous about hating the 01e's 2nd gear..

Ben! The car looks like it's hauling!!! That's pretty impressive! I need to get some video of my car.
