well, in all the excitement of the car running, i forgot to mail him back his 3bar MAP he let me borrow. So hey, i may as well take the Spirit to the PO! I start it up and it idles a bit rough and popping a little, but just over 1000 rpm.. good!

After a min or 2 of idling, it cleared right up and the idle dropped just under 1000. So I headed out. First off, the off boost power is crazy! Never had throttle response like that before!

It ran, idled, cruised, everything very smooth. I boosted it a couple times and it shot to like 14-15psi, then back to 9. I dunno what its set at, maybe my vacuum lines are all screwed up still.. i never got that far yet.

But man, riding in it in 2nd, holding the revs at like 2000-2500, then punching it... w:ow!
