Maybe I'll throw on the nitrous WITH the turbo. And then slap on a supercharger later on for good measure.

Someone had to let your lazy *** know. What still needs to be done to your car?

It should work damn well for my setup. 300 hp and a spool time that doesn't suck.

It was DelSol Don's turbo.

I ain't gonna blow it up. I tune everything extremely conservatively.

Since I cleaned and prepped the car for the track, I figured I'd take some pictures while she was still clean.





















No particular order, just posting the pix.

Yes, definately. I am talking to Autoworks about getting a front mount and a set of poly bushings for the x-member. That, along with solidifying the other motor mounts, should pretty much eliminate wheel hop.

We'll see. I got friends who weld *cough*Colinthismeansyou*cough* so I could probably get it done cheap.

Looks really nice though...

The turbo will be here Wednesday.

Actually sanded with a few grits (as you can prob. tell) I was tempted to keep going and make it bling blow...but I figured it would end up getting painted anyway

I figured if I don't have a cig. lighter, why not put it there! It has to come out though cause I need a cig. lighter for my tuner to hook his laptop up to.
