Man its been a while since i updated this thread !

well the kmember is powdercoated and in there now , trans brake is hooked up .

and as usual there was a change in plans ,,,, again

the car now will have twin t76 (IIRC) turbos installed . they already started working on the hot side using stock manifolds. i'll snap a few pics and post them soon .

as soon as that is done , focus will shift to the rear suspension . the way the owner has the current shocks/coils setup leaves much to be desired.

i also heard him say something about making a new roillcage for the car in the not so distant future.

thanks for the bump

the turbo's have been installed and the hotside piping done , just need to finish the cold side piping and mount the intercooler ( tghats if it has not been mounted already).

i'll pass by the shop and snap a few pics

i know progress has been slow , but we had a very busy racing season this year and quite frankly the focus has been on the race cars and not much on other projects .
