Make sure to watch all the way to the end:D
This was the first time out with the new turbo and everything.  Definately has some turbo lag and when its fully spooled, its now too fast for the course apparently.  maybe your not supposed to run 20psi out of a holset at an autox:hick:

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
