whoa....didnt know i was gonna get all these positive replies....thanks everyone.

well let me try to answer eeryones questions.
-this is indeed the ballbearing sohc turbo kit from apexi. ive only driven a good 2 miles on it and seems to pull pretty hard.
-as far as the intercooler goes...yes it is huge and the crazy amount of boost that im running is 6psi.
-i stripped the car completely and repainted it inside and out in the 94 ls grey color except i tweaked it a bit and but some metallic in it. cant really tell cause havent washed the car yet and theres tons of dust on it.
-the gauge cluster.... was a bit wierd to do. ill do a complete right up on it in a week or so when i finish putting my car together. you will need a 99 si gauge cluster to steal the faces off it and needles, relocate the check engine light somewhere else like on the dash or something. but overall it works perfect and lights up like the 99 si gauge cluster does.
-yeah ive done everything myself.
-to clean the door off real good i used a blow drydryer and pulled the guey stuff off.
and the things that i have left to do is add power windows and locks and finish redoing the interior.

thanks everyone!!! any other q's just ask away!
