So I did this Magazine Interview.....

First I want to publicly thank VSC member DollyKean for taking the time to scan and then mailing me the actual magazine from France. :biggthumpup:

Even tho I've done Magazine articles and other 'stuff' in the entertainment world ,I rarely talk about things I do here at VSC...

But for sum reason, I really like this article and decided to share :shrug:

Sweet! Em, you always get tons of coverage! What your secret? besides being a woman that works on her own car and having one of a very few v-8 rear turbo kits.

Would EGTs be different than the typical head -to-manifold style compared to your rear set up?

Thank you :)

yeah, the turbo runs a lot cooler...but its also enclosed somewhat in the (vented) tire well....but still much cooler than a typical setup. The exhaust pressure still spools it pretty fast. I've actually done (had to do) a few different configurations for this car to get it 'right'.

This is why you should ATTACH/UPLOAD the pictures versus using the Insert Image link.

Congrads on the article!! Now thats some international pimpin you got going on there. How many other people can say that they had their car featured in another continent in another language? I know a lot of people are going to be like "Yeah right, like she really works on her own car" but hating in French. It must be a Pinoy-chick thing. Before I got with my girl I knew we were meant to be together when I came over one day and she was installing her coilovers on her 350Z (now supercharged) and for my birthday 2 years ago she got me my struts on my car. I need a shot of your real fingernails thats how I tell if a woman likes to get down and dirty for real!!

Thanks!! I like this one because its in French, motivates me to learn the language even more. I also did one in Ireland

uh, My Fingernails are 'bolt ons'...for show only :smiley-rofl:

I had a fellow employee ask if I had small children or pets, wondering why I never have fingernails or about the minor scratches here n there....my Mom HATES it :sad:

I try to wear those mechanic type gloves but they just dont 'Feel right' :shrug:
