Default Fun Day driving around the Delta HWY 160 in the LQ9 Powered Bird

Fun day of driving. The Lq9 and 5 speed work well together. Still waiting and hoping to here back from the Synergy to get it dyno'd.

Here are a few pic's from the drive. For those of you from the Bay Area you can see Mt.Diablo in the back ground on one of the pic's and a few windmills in another.

Yah it has a different look. The paint is stock color and about 25yrs old. Not my favorite color but it does prevent rust. I bought the rims with out seeing the color in person "smoked titanium".

Some day I want to go with a different color, but I have to many people, kid's and dogs running around the shop. Things are always bouncing off my car.

The LQ9 swap was the best thing I did! It piss's off the pointiac guy's but it runs well.
