Another XFI Joins the Party

Hi everyone,

my first ever ecomodder post (I am pretty sure), after lurking for a couple years.
A Sincere thanks to everyone who posts here, such incredible and invaluable and inspirational information. there are a pretty amazing group of individuals here. And my new car is a direct result of everyone's participation in this forum.

My success story is that I bough an 92 XFI.
I've had her for a month now, and beginning to becoming familiar. Had a few upgrades performed so far, including most notably new front axles and 4 tires.

She's super fun to drive, and I'm hashing a general plan for what is to come:

1. Choose an appropriate name. it might be turtle related, let me know if I'm stepping on anyone's toes.

2. to build a complete aero body kit, ala aerocivic. starting with a boat tail. As I get up and running with this project I'll be sure to keep a thread in the aero section of the forum.

3. learn more about engine mechanics, and have my ride super dialed in. this is my weak point, so I am excited to do some wrenching and gain some understanding. I'll be sure to be asking some questions of those of you here that know a heck of a lot more than I do. I appreciate your consultations in advance.

4. have fun while doing all of the above


Thanks!
