My car is never "finished"... 
Next on the agenda is probably meth injection, a new hood, and a short shifter. I'd be happy to have that done by the end of the season. Still need to swap in a built rear, clutch, EBC... I can go on forever. Oh I also have two TurboSmart BOV's on order that Slowboy Racing somehow screwed up...

Well.... I've been a busy little elf... I finally started on my TH400 conversion... I finally got all my parts and the T56 is out... I got the meziere flexplate, neal chance converter, bmr trak pak (installed), pro stick mocked in (gotta find some better metal to mount it to), finally got an auto console and pedals, and some other stuff.. currently I'm waiting on my JW bellhousing and BMR crossmember which should be about two weeks... I'm also going to a FMIC soon and then it'll be off to tuning (doing it myself) ... I've spent a ridiculous amount just on the swap but I won't have to worry about it once it's said and done...

Right now I'm skimping and saving so I can do a T6 setup over the winter. My motor should be ready any time now. I plan to drive it na for the rest of this year.

I dynoed the numbers in my sig on last weekend with my new Nasty fuel system, and intercooler from EPP after what seemed like about a million hours of screwing around.

Changed the wastegates springs out and reinstalled my methanol and changing the gears this weekend then some further tuning will be the end of the orange car. The black car I have all the pieces back from the machine shop just need a little time to put it all together.
