Default turbo del sol plus new camera, check it out!

I've been at school for the past couple weeks and i came home for my birthday this weekend(bday was thursday the 16th). I got a Fujifilm finepix A330, so i decided to wash the car and take it out for a quick photoshoot. I made a few sad attempts at being artistic, but hey at least i tried. let me know what you think and if anybody has experience with the camera, pointers are always good


just got done washing it

You should change some of those exterior pics for pics of the engine bay. I'm sure much of the work done is on the motor correct?

Fix the muffler, give it a drop, some new wheels and you're hot

yeh..the car came with that fartcan on there and I'm just leaving it for now. and you are correct that most of the money is into the motor....stock d16z6 until i can afford to build it, 5.5 psi on greddy 15g kit, greddy type 31 intercooler, dsm 450cc injectors, egt gauge and boost gauge(as you can see), falken ziex 195/60 tires, uberdata, greddy type s bov. For the money, i'm very happy with the car. next mod is to lower it then i'd like to get a boost controller and run about 7 pounds. eventually I'd like to build the motor if I keep it long enough Concerning the wheels, I actually like the "baby hammers", but may invest in something aftermarket eventually.

the **** that had the car before me had it welded on to stock piping that he had re-ran for some reason and there is no hanger on there. I plan on getting full 3" exhaust with a not so gay muffler in the next couple of months anyways

ran it in high humidity and a heat soaked manifold with a shitty 60 ft time of 2.46 and managed a 9.8 in the 1/8th...not anything impressive but something to work on. keep in mind this is stock suspension, stock exhaust, stock downpipe, stock boost,etc

yeh..im planning on leaving it fairly stock looking. I'd like to lower it a bit, but not slamming it...these pa roads suck. How many of you would recognize that it's boosted drivin by it on the street?
