Incredibly slow.

Still, Macs suck too, so...lesser of two evils I suppose. :D

I think the best version of windows was Windows 2000 professional, no fancy looking gui
C R A P, and stable like a MOFFO =)

Now that I think about it, I think my XP runs faster than most, i've disable all the cheesy extra graphics settings, it looks like Windows 2000 right now. I prefer function over form ^^ just like on my car.

Yep, same here. Windows XP Pro, no frills. But really, the BEST version of Windows was NT 3.51. Most stable ever. It'll never be like that again.

Anyway, too off topic now. :D

You guys should load windows 3.1 into a gigahertz machine and then you will know the meaning of fast.

I bet it won't run as good as you think it would, if at all.lol 3.1 is a 16-bit OS. It just wasn't made for the new technology.

Is the hydra software free for download or does someone want to email or post it on a site for me to DL? I'll mess with it and try to get it to work with Vista. I've gotten some programs to work on vista that wasn't supposed to.

Let me know and I'll spend some down time on it. I like doing that kind of crap.

Windows NT was good, I just hated installing the 4 or 5 service packs to get it to run perfect

i just started wondering....how was this spose to get oil? the ZPI stage 1 kit for my buddies xB was setup like this and died cuz oil couldnt be pumped from the turbo which mounted below the oil pan back up too the motor. if this return system is gravity fed....hmmm idk...yeah...i dont see a diff between this kit and the xB zpi kit that was destined for failure upon design. is stripper even still posting on this?

remote turbos typically have a return pump, along with its' own small sump (though the sump isn't really necessary).
