Default My Car, Almost Done!!!

Started out as a 95 dx with 85k, going in is a 94 b18b with a t3/t4.


Day one







with oil and coolant line attached

with drop shop ic, i had to cut out 2 inches of bumper support to squeeze it in there

as it stands now

what else:
1 gen dsm bov
uberchip with a bad *** map from Jon at the drop shop
3 inch downpipe and exhaust
magnaflow turbo muffler
dsm 450's
some del sol 14's
mani and ic both by Jon at the drop shop


hoping to be a high 12sec sleeper on slicks. only exterior stuff might be clear corners. i wanna kill that stupid pin stripe and maybe paint the door moldings, handles, and license plate holder red, no yellow, uhh i mean white
i figure the only things that may give me away are the ic and exhaust
comments, suggestions???
Thanks
Burke

also what's with the two nipples on the wastegate?? i know one is vac, but is the other go to atm?
also, what oil should i put in this beast????

maybe 1/2 - 1 hour. it was REAL ******* dirty so i just hit the important parts with a wire wheel. did the same to the valve cover and head. but i stripped the valve cover first.
the block took cans of degreaser and simple green and its not even that clean. there was 9 years of **** on it
