Will be interesting to see how the engine holds up after long term use. If the 1.8 can hold together with at lest six psi then I think their will be some significant interest generated by this...now will Greddy make a kit for the general population is another story.

@ CXTKRS1 it does pay to be objective. Think posative man! I am really pumped for this. Our compression is not to high, but I wonder about our fuel system or afm. @ Rally XD did you guys have to upgrade anything? Fuel pump/injectors/afm/fuel rail ect? I'm religiously following your blog, and loving it!

Definitely something we are all wondering about. The E-manage is set at 2 different setting, one at 4 psi, the other at 6 psi. The dual settings will allow the driver some options during the stages. We hope to have some testing sessions soon prior to the next race event.

Since you announced the winner to the caption contest, could you also tell us your favorites that didn't win?

Fill us in on that new clutch! Aftermarket parts are hard to find, and I went to ACT's website (probably not up to date) and they didn't have a kit readily available. So the fact you found one is awesome! It's obviously performance oriented, but what all does it include? Is it lighter, just more friction, does it include a lighter flywheel, and does the part coincide for another vehicle and fit our car as well? Religiously watching, all bow down before the mighty Rally XD!

Rumor has it that an existing off the shelf clutch is compatible. Getting info from our techs and ACT soon. Will post up info asap.

I was reading your blog, and saw that before Chris left he wanted the XD turbo charged. All I can say is god bless that man, and wish him well in his future ventures.

Who doesn't want more power right! Last years goals didn't have engine development in the plans. This year...different story. Plus now with ACP driving, had to do it. It'll be interesting to see even with the turbo how he'll pilot a car with less then 1/2 the power of his standard rally race car.
