Anybody else find it odd that both Soobies that showed up had blown their engines previously? Hmmm, issues with boost + OEM engine internals.

I only knew about one of them. It probably is trying to run more boost on stock engine. Probably wasn't designed for a lot on oem internals. Many factory engines can't take a lot of boost even our Z's I wouldn't push past 500 on stock internals.

I updated the Facebook page with a few more Supercar Saturday Events.
In summary May, July, Sept. Supercar Saturdays will be in Bolingbrook. June and August will be in Bannickborn (Half Day Road and Waukegan Road). Page 1 of this thread will be updated with details today ![]() Also, please feel free to talk about anything on this thread or the facebook page as I want this to be a social group ![]() It would be nice to know what mods people are running and what they plan to do.

Interesting, Z1motorsports is now selling the FI exhaust. I wonder what the wait time is for it. When I did an experiment order they offer options of next day shipping...
They offer SS and Carbon Fiber with Non res, 12" , or 18" res.
