just a little update i found out where my water leaks are coming from in the front of the car. i was trying to order new window weather stripping but seeing as how nothing is made for our cars anymore, im going the silicone way of sealing it up. I know exactly where its getting in on the driver side so that ones easy, the pass side looks like it coming from the fender area and im gona have to remove the hood and hinge to see if i have a rust hole there or something and seal it up.

Good stuff James.

Get a header, an intake, and a dyno tune (and maybe E85?), and I could you see you breaking the record for a stock B20 lol

hmm good number on hp the tq is pretty weird tho. sounds like you need to adjust your map. how was your a/f ratio?

im bone stock with oem intake and header. only thing i have done is a 2.25 full exhaust (highflow cat and res).
