Quote, originally posted by BlueCrush »Congrats, Faultline! Well deserved for being the first turbo Vibe.Thanks a bunch! I have been busy lately, and havent taken the time to post up pics.. I will soon.Last month I had my down pipe redone because of some leaks. I have my alcohol injection hooked up again, and best of all I have a dual stage boost contoller now. It has a switch right next to the steering column that goes from 6psi to 11psi with on little click!I also added a center feed fuel rail for better fuel distribution since I up the fuel pressure when in boost, And I finally got my windows tinted. All this to say, that like everyone else, my car is a work in proggress, sometimes a slower work than others. I will admit that many of the other nominees have great and even better looking Vibes than mine, and with cool features. That is why I aprreciate all the votes knowing that perfomance modifications are not overlooked when considering a Vibe of the month.Most every mod I have is listed in my signature, and know that except for former VOTM winner devlop, my car is the most fun of Vibes to drive...as it is more than a little bit fast! Thank again to those who voted for the 1st turbocharged Vibe as VOTM! ....Barry.

Congratulations on being VOTM. I've been pulling for you, you had the first FI Vibe and it took guts to take the chance on the little four banger. Pushing the envelope on what these cars can do, and modest about the results and the time/money you've put into advancing Vibe-dom. I agree that were a lot of excellent VOTM nominations this time, and it will be hard to choose one over the others next time because they deserve it, but I am really glad you got recognized with it this time.

Congratulations faultline...you've been nominated quite a few times and always gotten a lot of votes so I'm glad you finally won. Obviously you deserve it, although I've not ever seen your car a lot of people are impressed with it so way to go!

Congrats Faultline! To "push the envelope" and produce a well-performing turbocharged Vibe is amazing and well-deserving of VOTM. Of course, we'll need to see lots of photos in the Gallery now!As for the VOTM process, I'll pick that up in Kari's new thread (thanks for starting that Kari!).

Congrats Faultline - the photo of the engine I found shows you've done a lot of hard work. However, I didn't vote for you because of the lack of visuals I had before the voting ended.

Nice mods Faultline!Here's my take. I don't go to car shows, and I don't care. I have no idea what a 'best is show' car should have. I still want to vote for VOTM, because I know what I like and what I'd love to do to my Vibe.

http://photobucket.com/albums/a386/Faultline05/ I just drove out to what I call faultline road, it is my road to work on the SanAndreas faultline, and I snapped these pics..I came back and joined Photo bucket,..press the slide show for the 5 pics. My sig tells most of my mods. In the engine bay pic, you can see the air intake going back to the turbo, then the white pipes go to the intercooler then to the throttlebody. You can see the SF fuel system is moved to the front by the radiator. You can see the new fuel rail right below the valvecover. In the guages pic , you can see the boost guage in the ac vent, and the red dot to the left of the steeringwheel is the switch for the boost controller. It turns the boost up from 6psi to 11psi, or in other words , from 190whp to 250whp ...Thanks again everyone!

I've already congatulated Faultine on winning VOTM, but I just noticed that on the homepage it still shows Psychobroker's Vibe as VOTM winner.Not that there's anything wrong with that (you've got an awesome Vibe psychobroker!), I just hope Faultline's Vibe makes it onto the homepage before the next VOTM is chosen!UPDATE ASAP!!!
