No problem, I took it out on a canyon drive with my wife and the car feels much better in canyons. I don’t have to rev it so high and the power is awesome. Take into consideration I have a 550 whp Miata that weighs about the same as my yari, yet I still find this car a blast to drive. On my way to my sons soccer practice it feel much more confident in passing situations. I have a state referee appointment on the 23rd of this month. Once that’s sorted out I will add a k&N filter, cut a.couple holes in the airbox so the car can breathe easier and of course the 2.5” exhaust from the resonator back.

Future plans include the possibility of a first gen eclipse (tdo5h) 16G turbo tuned to 210 whp...It’s a compact turbo and only $300 on eBay. I’ll likely have my local turbo rebuilder take out the junky China bearings and seals and add some Japanese parts into it as that’s what fails, he’s done it before and had great results with them lasting over 5 years in customer cars.
