Went to pick up the car about 2 hours ago, Test drove it and OMFG unbelieveable how much torque this engine generates. Its fast just WAY fast. going from 60-110 in 6,5 seconds. Needed to test if the speed limiter was removed, well it was

Going easy now and will test drive it for the next 2 weeks before putting some major stress on it. In this period I hope to have fitted the GT4 hood and bumper and also bringing it to the painter.

I'm just amazed at how my tires held up, did not push it but no wheelspin in 2nd gear on semi wet surface. But still have to break in the clutch. So keep you guys updated. Will try to make a few better shots tomorrow sinces it rains now and my car is dirty!

Got PM back.
Yeah power is always there just great. Put a lot of miles on it yesterday. And discovered that I get better Mileage with the 3S-GTE then with the 3S-GE. Drove the first 156 miles (experimenting) on 7,5 gallons.

Boosting alot I still get 20-22 MPG while i have to be easy with the old engine just going steady 75 MPH on the freeway doing the same or less. I gonna test drive it tomorrow but it think going steady at 75 MPH (@ 3200 RPM) I will get 30 MPG.

Overall this is the best thing (after installing the Teins) that I have done to the car. 1st Swap, 2nd Teins, 3rd Projectors.
