    You are a busy man with so many builds!
    ITB? Wow, nice! What the throttle bodies come off of? Custom intake manifold for everything to fit into?
    Sounds like some amazing projects.
    It sucks I haven't driven my Turbo C in so long, I do miss it. But too many other things to do. It just has to sit on the back burner for now.



    Congrats brother! Wifey pregnant already or you working on it? It's amazing how much life changes when you have kids! They are great and all, but sometimes you want a moment of peace!
    Oh and I know all about the lack of free time! It gets better as they get older. Your free time comes back very slowly. But you do get some.
    2 kids are a game changer! My oldest is 4 years, and the new one is a month old now.
    You should wait a bit longer. Let you daughter get a little older so that when you have the second one she can help you guys out! 3-4 years is a good gap between kids.
    I'm still on the fence. A part of me really wants the C43, and a part of me really wants to keep the Turbo. So I'm very torn.
    I hope there is no problem to sell the Turbo set up if it comes to that. I'd want it to go to someone that appreciates the time and effort you put into it and I put into it (more so you!).
    Not sure how I missed your response Ross!! Fully agree with everything you said haha. We are looking to a second now but your right its a game changer. Hope all is well with yours now,your youngest will be 9 months hope your getting some sleep xD

    I'm ok if you have to sell the turbo gear, just make sure they know how much went into those bits haha. having a family now I think custom days are limited you'd want to jump in a C43 and cruise!!

    take it easy man
