Default Turbo K20 Ek Hatch

I just got through building my k20 turbo hatch, was running stock motor and tranny for a long time until i blew up 4th gear. Went a completely different route with the car and figured id show a little of my hard work. This pic was taken 2 weeks ago, all i was waiting on was my throttle cable to fit the xcessive manifold. Heres a rundown:
Motor:
K20a2 stock sleeve block
Eagle rods
wiseco 10:1 pistons
Supertech valvetrain
OEM headgasket

Tranny:
Stock 6 speed with New oem gears treated by racer steve.
Comp stage 5 unsprung clutch
comp flywheel

Turbo:
PLM manifold
Tial 44mm wastegate
Tial BOV
Borg Warner S362 ETT .70 t3 housing
hondata bbg solenoid
precision intercooler with custom 3" ends

xcessive bottom feed intake manifold with extensive porting
Q45 90mm throttle body
dual walbro in take full blown setup
-8 feed -6 return
Bosch 1600cc injectors
aeromotive pressure reg
golden eagle polished fuel rail
-16 AN coolant hoses
Brake line tuck with a wilwood 7/8 master, custom boost delete plate.
Tucked clutch resevior
Full wire tuck
DSS 2.9 axles


All fab work and motor build and tuning done by me out of my garage.
Car is currently running on e85 at 28-30 lbs of boost (fuel system maxed out) making a little under 700.
With boost by gear setup it hooks hard in most gears with a lot less power, im running toyo r888 tires.

Other than the name plate on the valve cover, VERY NICELY and cleanly done. Very reasonable turbocharger choice, too.

So, what's the purpose of the car? Street fighter? Street/Strip? Show? a little of all 3?

Yea i agree man, a buddy of mine made it (the plug cover) for me and was going for a plain one but he decided to spice it up lol. I do love the s362 ett turbo, this thing sure did come alive after 24 lbs, car is a strait up street fighter, love nothing more then gettin down on the highway with bikes and some turbo v8's. although i did run 10.80's on pump gas 17 lbs.
