Whoa. Consider me impressed! I always wanted to do that. :)

So have you driven it? You haven't said a  thing about how it drives. I've always liked the turbo whistle and to have that in stereo - wow - music to my ears!


Oh it's fun ;)  No doubt about that.  The turbos make tons of nice whistling sounds and the blow off valve.  Call me a ricer, but I love it!  :D

Sadly I'm not close to it right now, or else I wouldn't be here posting, I'd be out driving it  haha.  But let me tell you, when that boost needle hits ~10, you're holding on for dear life  :D

That's pretty incredible David.  If I were you I wouldn't be able to stand being so far away from it for so long.

It'd be like getting a Christamas present, then having to put it away for a few months.

Battery is where the backseat used to be.  2 people in the car at a time... unless there are two women who want to share the front seat :D :giggle:

Nope, no power steering, I have the March Alternator bracket, which also removes the stock tensioner.  I believe it's a 40.5 inch belt.  Alt, Water pump and Crank.  ;)

Trust me, evertime I see a Camaro or Mustang or punk kid with a fart can, it makes me wish I had my car with me.  But I guess it's better that I don't get my license suspended this summer  :rollin:  Yeah trust me though, it does hurt.  But at the end of the semester I was very frusterated with it.  Oh well.

How come you didn't move the battery on back to the trunk? Only demo derby cars have the battery in the back seat. ;)

The way my sub box and amp rack are placed, I didn't really have any flat space back there that was metal to drill into. 

I'll have to get some numbers from a dyno when I get back in August.

LOL.  We probably don't need the cops called on us again, like someone  got on us a couple years back... 

I'm not going to be able to make it to CatJam.  But I can pick you up from STL airport for private showings ;)  Hahaha. (starting August)

:D

5.0 + Twin Turbos = High 10`s ??!?!?!

 Personally, i think that any  new car under 50,000 will be slower than yours... !!!
