    I spent a A LOT of time on the car, totally worth it though. I built most of it when I was in high school. It's mostly for track use and is too stiff for daily abuse, but i don't mind rolling around town spanking v8's, ahaha Today I just got the 5.0 throttle body to work with megasquirt, and man did it make a difference over the other mazda 323 throttle body i had on it before. Right now im running only 7 psi of boost while im fine tuning it, but as it is, with that amount of power, I brake the tires loose at 4000 rpm in first and second gear!! The car is only welded in the front towers and the rear brace under the back seat. Soon a roll cage and full frame welding and foam filled frame rails!
