Bio

I am an active duty Marine. I’ve served for just under 10 years now. I live by “a jack of all trades a master of none but often times better than a master of one”

How did you find the Goblin?

Demolition Ranch

What drew you to the Goblin?

I’ve always been into building something I can customize and personalize over buying off the lot. It adds more personality and personal value to the project.

How does it fit into your lifestyle?

Weekend warrior

What have you modified that sets it apart?

It was originally a 2.2l N/A that has been supercharged with stock internals. The rear engine covers have been cut to allow the removal with the water to air intercooler. A small oil cooler has been installed behind the seats above the gas tank instead of just looping the system.

Any memorable trips, races, or events?

I have driven it across country multiple times through questionable weather when going to and from duty assignments.

Favorite aspect (design, performance, or community)?

I like the rear engine concept and the ability to make easy repairs or upgrades.

Any future plans?

Need a better tune and will probably upgrade all of the internals to support higher boost pressure. Need to do research to see how compatible my frame is to add a manual transmission.
