First my favorite ride a K2 Believer:
fav_ride.jpg


The GTI 1.8T on the Dyno (243hp/271tq) my first turbo build...
gti_dyno.jpg


right before it was sold
gti.jpg


The Talon (aka Pinky) my second favorite... This car was a beast... built by me and a very good friend of mine with my deployment savings. tuned by Street Tuned Motorsports. Full AEM Standalone on a Borg Warner S366 turbo... 427hp@27psi on pump gas, car ran low 11's all day on cheap street tires. Took back to STM for a street tune after some mild changes and tuned it out to 33psi and E85, approx gain of about 50-60hp, but no dyno to verify it. She ran two good seasons at the track and on the street, made quite a few enemies from bikes, to cobras, to a porsche cayenne and a few muscle cars in there too. We had a good run... This will be my only regret letting her get away.

And just incase you were wondering, the wheel color was to throw people off and pick on subie owners, it backfired as anyone who looked at it immediately thought if you got balls to put pink wheels on your car, the car better back itself up...

pinky005.jpg


this was the initial dyno tune to get the engine broken in... you literally couldn't stand inside without hearing protection video never did it justice...

This is the black talon that was going to get all of white pinky's internals an run as an automatic, but decided to sell everything...
pinkyv2_talon.jpg




The main reason for the truck was to get pinky to the track and she always towed beautifully... This is what it looked like when i left it in the garage to come to Kuwait for the year. There are already tons of parts sitting in the bed of it for when I get home in December... including lift wheels and tires...

loaded for a trip to Carlisle Performance and Sound show in 2011...

quick fix of tailgate damage... was tired of looking at a dent uhaul put in it and to lazy to get a new one so i cut out some vinyl and went to town... i was drunk so don't mind the pattern being off and i was also really low on glossy white vinyl.

I drive it every day, I wish I could tell you about some great mods I have done but i have been getting it ready for adventures. So far I have replaced the Injection system, new plugs, wires and cap and rotor. one of the CV boots tore so I wound up rebuilding the entire front end with , both new 1/2 shafts,upper and lower A arm bushings, wheel bearings, all tie rods, ball joints, pitman and idler arms. sway bar bushings, rotors, calipers ,brake hoses and pads.Then the AC hose leak got bigger, so I changed the hose, compressor ,fan clutch, belt the dryer then condenser end stripped so I replaced it. Next the catalytic converters plugged then they were replaced.
I am trying to get at least 100,000 more miles out of it, so I have been a little over board on it's maitence. it run well gets about 13/16 MPG
maybe over the winter I can either make or buy bumpers for it, but I want to rebuild the rear axle, so we will see what happens. It is a great truck it gets my son and I to some great camping and fishing adventures,with the Yakima racks I can stack 3 kayaks on the roof. We are planning a Big Bend trip next spring break, so I am getting her in top shape before any mods that do not help reliability. I did put a new radio in it.

thanks for selling it to me

I got this email today after checking in on him. Thing started to take a dump after I sold it, but at least he has fixed it all correctly.
 
aww how sweet......i was going through my phone the other day and found the texts back and forth with the guy i sold my bucket to, thought about calling him and seeing how its running but then again maybe i shouldnt, in case he's super pissed about something
