Bill, I could swear I saw that FFR Type 65 Daytona Coupe in Tuscaloosa, AL. 
There is one the same color here. Didn't get to look at it up close but the 
tail end was definately the same shape.

Also your VW project is cool. I beleive the Bosch stuff is pretty well 
reverse-engineered but that is a money game. The guys who tune Bosch are all 
about the rich kids and get as much as you can and keep it a secret black 
art so nobody else can do it.

As for my projects, I've installed a 7730 GM ECM into a 86 Buick LeSabre 
Grand National (yes they actually made a LeSabre Grand National,  but it was 
not factory turbocharged). Then, I installed a turbo system and tuned it 
with Code59 tune.

The car, with Regal-style hood bulge installed on LeSabre hood:

Test drive video (not good due to traffic):

So other than spending time overseas working, that's been my latest project!
Sincerely,
David
