So whats your motivation?

Post by twkdcd595 »

I am kinda with Tony, although I use the dyno as a gauge for improvement/ progress agianst myself as I dyno in the same place every time.

I do it for me though first/ foremost, I do it for the challenge of something different, and the love of tinkering with cars. I love the random encounters with people who dont think a second thing about whats next to them.

To clarify something, I'm just like everyone else that builds their cars for them, and that I also like to go the different route than normal here in STL... The reasoning that Patrick is my motivation for one project is simply this... He has a V6 swap.

And I have been talking to many one here about doing something different once again...
