Trip made across country the way a boosted civic should :)

I havent showed my face in here in a while... Since I moved to Cali I've been without boost for a year now... Finally got her out here.

Check out this bad *** transport...

leaving the east coast

Here it is on the other side. damn you don't need hotels with this thing...

New garage all setup

Ahh... feels good to have my car back.
An update for those who saw posts from when I put this motor together... I put just over 13k miles boosted 14psi in no more then 4 months

ran strong at the track all summer. Although, last time it was at the track I had some issues with possibly the valve train or LMA... needs some TLC.

Ok, this buggy was on the truck... getting delivered to a +70yr old guy...

ahh, I see how the tittle is deceiving, sorry for the let down. I'm just excited to have my car back after a year of driving a stock DX

and thought the truck was cool...

Don't think this is a trailer queen because I plan to drive it til something else breaks once it's on the road again. I just didn't want to break it in the middle of nowhere trying to cross the states.

For sure bro! I checked out how you guys do it in Tampa, now it's time for you to see how things are done out here.

what a let down! I thought it was going to be a list of the cars you toasted on the great east-west highways of the US of A. Or a video of 150mph crusising out west....anything but a car carrier. nice gayrage though

Ok Ok... man I forgot FI forum hates trailers... I was thinking this was a nice change since I did the long trip from Mobile AL to Boston MA when I first picked this car up already boosted (a few setups ago)...

Me, that knew nothing about the car and a +1400mi drive with a stroker B16 and boost... trust me I have stories lol.
