I'm kind of in a bind here, I need to get rid of some rims for cash for my turbo kit. If you are interested just shoot me an email at djvash2@yahoo.com and since I can't actually sell them on the board I won't post a price. 17" white Team Dynamic Pro Race's, 45mm offset, ONLY 16.5lbs, with 215/45 17 tires. I'm in the Detroit area, Sterling Heights to be exact. It's gonna be sweet. I'm setting up a custom manifold, t3/t04, Spearco FMIC, all the goodies. Do you guys know of any shops in the Detroit area that are good for tuning custom chips to turbo kits? www.thefocusconnection.com www.m1motorsports.com djvash2@yahoo.com

We have a guy on here that is driving from iowa to detroit to get his car tuned. Hes running a 3.0L SC'ed cougar. This is what he had to say, "Im going to Dyno Daves. He is in Brownstown twp., MI about 30 miles from downtown Detriot actually. This is where fordchip does most of thier tuning I guess. Dave said fordchip is there at least 2-3 times a week and that he thinks there is no better tuner in the country then the mystery Roush man. He said it will take 6 pulls to tune my car perfectly. " Im guessing he can do this kinda magic on turbos too. Jim Hahn 1996 T-Red Contour SE Reborn 4/6/04 3.0L swap and Arizona Dyno Chip Turbo Kit 364 whp, 410 wtq @ 4,700 rpm

I have someone fabricating the turbo manifold and tubing for me, Tom's kit is a waste of money and not worth the price... but it does get you the numbers. I'll definitely have to take a look at Dyno Daves. I've never even heard of him, but I know a few guys that have friends at Rousch. I'll ask around, thanks. And Tom is making 435whp. www.thefocusconnection.com www.m1motorsports.com djvash2@yahoo.com

I totally forgot he had nitrous. Yeah, I'm in M1. I'm going tomorrow to look at the turbo manifold and piping, and I've found a turbo and intercooler. Hopefully I'll have some good news after this weekend. Noone interested in some wheels? Last edited by djvash; 03/14/03 12:50 PM. www.thefocusconnection.com www.m1motorsports.com djvash2@yahoo.com
