New here, my Modified 87 TC

I can't believe I just found this place a few days ago.  Here are some pictures of my 1987 TC with 63K miles on it (came from Arizona).  Mods include:

-Full 3" straight exhaust
-Boost controller @ 17 PSI
-SPEC Stage 3 Clutch and Aluminum Flywheel
-Corbeau FX1 Racing Seats
-Chuck W. Poly motor mounts, Energy Poly tranny mount and tranny bushings
-ROH Snyper Rims (17X9 in back, 16X8 up front), M/T Drag Radials
-Kirban AFPR

Soon to come:
-Ranger Radiator
-Large NPR intercooler
-Forge RS BOV
-Ported/Polished Intake Manifolds
-T3 Turbo
-Various Powder Coated parts for effect :)

Last year I went drag racing once (with only 3" exhaust, boost controller and new clutch/flywheel) and ran a 15.14 on old hard street tires.  Shooting for 13's this summer.  Are there any midwesterners on the board?  I had my car at the Car Craft Summer Cruise last year, I may have met you.  I'll be there again this year, with all the mods done.  So tell me, how do you like it???

Here is the only video I have of me racing - Rock Falls, Wisconsin.  Ran against my bro's 5.0 'stang.  Considering I had to roll into the race really easy to avoid spinning, I think my best of 15.14 was pretty decent.  11" wide drag radials should help substantially this year :D

These cars look GOOD with ROH Snypers.  I just let a set of 16 X 8's slip through my hands and I'm still looking to purchase some.  Car looks good!
