Hey ya'll,  Been on the "other" board for a while...looks like i'm going to like it here!   :cheers:


Just got back into the TR world.  About 3 months ago I bought my old highschool guy back from the guy I sold it to 10 years ago.  Been painted and done nicely since then...he's a body shop manager so he did all the work.  It's a 87 hardtop GN with a TE44 turbo and supporting mods with a Scanmaster for tuning.  I bought a PLX WB and hoping to get the powerlogger soon so steve, earl, and some of you other pros can check out my runs. 


Happy Boosting!

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

It's already got a TE44 so all we gotta do is figure out what the widest tires will fit on stock rims and pick out a BOV  :D



oh, and the best aftermarket headers

I like Hooker headders because it's yet another reason to use the word 'hooker' in a sentence.

Another word I like as it gives yet another reason to use the phrase 'doggie style' in a sentence.

When using 'blow' in a sentence, I'm more of a blow on kinda recipient than a blow off :)
