Well, here it is. The newest addition to my collection of toys. An '86 GLH. From the factory it's a potent little beast, nicknamed GLH, which stands for Goes Like Hell. For a car weighing in at just under 2300lbs, it's stock 150+hp turbocharged engine really moves it along nicely. This car has however been already modded slightly with a new intake, larger throttle body, larger fuel pump, 2.5" exhaust, and a front mount intercooler. Running a strong 10psi right now, the car goes much better than stock, and will surprise a lot of cars on the road. I am currently installing a new exhaust, larger injectors, 3 bar map sensor, and a new ECU from FWD Performance which will up the boost to 16 -18psi and correct all the fuel curves and ignition to really make this car GO LIKE HELL! Other future plans including repainting it back to it's original Santa Fe Blue color, and sprucing up the old tattered interior a little. The car came from Florida (hence the palm trees) and is nice and rust free on the entire bottom! It was a long, hot drive back from FL in 101 degree temps with no cruise control, no AC, and not even a radio. But it seems to be well worth it!
