12arotary is on a distinguished road
I brought this with me last year during my move to Oregon and have been daily driving it for about 9000 miles now. Its surprisingly a lot of fun. I'm running about 12psi and it spools pretty fast. 0-60 is down to a solid 10second but it tops out around 90mph, its still a slow diesel. I get about 400-430 miles on each tank (10 gallon) so the fuel economy is fantastic.
it started non-turbo @59hp, I can't wait to get it get it on a dyno and see if I made it to 100hp yet
