yeah i read the post where you blower took a crap on you. and yours is no longer going to be a daily driver and its going to be a pure race machine. what blower were you running? and which blower are you going with?

I was running a whipple 3.4 and I might continue to run it. I am considering running a twin 67mm watercooled turbo set-up but haven't decided yet.

I have decided though that I am going to keep my car a 'street car' no matter what cause that's what makes it 'cool' IMO...
