Dave, you have a birthday coming at some point. I'm sure your wife will be getting you one of those too! :D
You would think that company has millions invested in that auto program. Couldn't they fork over a couple bucks for a "real" camera crew?
Anyway, amazing car I will never be able...
Awesome, Matt!!
It's a big bite to swallow, but having that short block will be peace of mind when you want to turn up the boost. That's why I bought my beefy short block so I could play harder.
Of course, you will now eat up transmissions and rear ends, buy bigger fuel pumps, bigger...
Yep, the parts are all here now. The pictures were taken with the 66mm turbo, but since then the 76mm unit has been delivered. I would love to tell you the name of the turbo kit, but I have decided I am not going to support them. As for the cost, about $5000.

It would be easy to design a cage that kept the stock rear seat in place. The only problem is that the cross bar would make it damn near impossible to get in there. And if you did have an accident, getting someone out of that rear seat could take too long. That's if the persons head slamming...
Have the turbo kit all layed out and it sure is pretty. Will start mocking up the kit on the motor next week when my electric water pump shows up. Will post some pictures then as all the chrome and powder coated pieces should be in place. Gonna be purdy!!!!!!

Don't have any pictures of the latest progress with the jams painted and the base color down, but it is getting close. Here are pictures of all the body work done.
Kinda stealthy.......I like that look. Is it mostly stock? What kind of goodies does it have and what are you going to do with it (other than not let it get wet). :)
Brandon :nice:
Has anyone here run their anti-roll bar on the street? I have always heard they beat you up on everything but the smoothest of roads. I am curious, as I am adding one to my car this year.

Man, if I had this bad boy in high school I could have gotten with all the toothless babes!
Brian,
Glad to hear it all worked out well for you. Remember, when you have another open weekend to do some mods, put that E cam in there. Yes, the motor runs really well right now, but with the ported intake and heads you can probably find 10 hp with the cam swap.
As for the intake...
WOW WOW WOW!!!
I just got my first back from the paint shop and I have walked past it for 3 days now. Everytime, I stop, look at it, and sigh. It is soooooo freakin cool!!! I should have the whole car back in a couple weeks. I am going to the graphics shop tonight to put the "ok" on the...
Hey, Dave.
I was going to call you about something completely different the other night. Guess I have two reasons to call you now. I had no idea thats what you did. Would sometime Saturday be ok to call? I am not sure I can find the paper I had your number writen on. Would you PM it to...
If anyone here is a dealership parts person, or know someone who is, could you please get in touch with me? I would like to ask some general questions about the work and how you like it.
Thanks,
