oh and you can see the boost guage in this one (auto-meter pro lite, matches the stock guages very nicely)

What color is the interior lighting at night. I think it's red or something. And doesn't it come with a cool kenwood deck as well? I remember the lighting being pretty cool inside. Just can't remember if it was this car.

Rep Power: 0 15.6 was my best, only did 4 runs. I'm still learning how to drive it, its SO much different than the Civic (driving style, ya know having torque now). My turbo hits max boost around 4k rpm, 5.5-6.0psi. The best time stock I've read about is 15.1, but that car had a max psi of 6.9. All MSP's vary between 5 to 7 psi stock. A manual boost controller is coming this week to fix that, going to 8psi (going to be safe). Within a month or so I'm going to have a nice big front mount intercooler on there. The lights on the guages are orange, like the Civic. The Kenwood deck is nice (Kenwood did the entire 450w sound system, even has a lil 8" sub), plays mp3 cd's.

Rep Power: 0 After everything was said and done, I ended up financing 18k. 407 a month...infact that reminds me, my first payment is due soon. I'm not going to up the boost anytime soon, although its very tempting to buy a manual boost controller, this engine isn't ready for much more than stock boost. All bolt-ons' right now, the more boost when its ready.
