Turbo and piping. Getting a bit overboard with all this for a street car but I want it clean and easy to work on.

not as bad as you think. They move pretty fast so labor isn't crazy. For me, I am working alot right now so it would take me forever to get it done. It took me a year to get the tube front on, fill in the firewall and strut towers.

Got the inside panels and rear hatch panels done. Tubs will stay silver. Should pop when black carpet is installed.

Got the tin installed. It pops. Kinda busy but the carpet etc will tone it down. Got the weight with everything but electronics and carpet. 2500lb with driver will definately not be an issue with rol up windows, stereo, door locks etc.

Awesome build, can't wait to see some shake down passes. I hope you post up the whole process as you develop the chassis tuning and power this is some serious drool factor here

Drove 9hrs today to go to LJRC to talk for 45min. Had to look at what was done make a few changes and go over radiator placement. Took some pics while I was there. It is close to being ready for pick up.

The lines for the inter cooler look clean with the firewall bulkhead

Here is a good pick of the hydrodipped stuff. I dipped all the visible when you look through the window. It is a firewall and covers the tanks.

Finally got radiator. Got it mounted finally!!! It is 22x14in. I believe. Fit like a glove with a little modification of the lower rail. I think it will cool just fine.



should be ready for me to dis-assemble for polIsh, powdercoat, and ceramic coat soon.

Car is ready for pick up. Got to figure out how to get a day off so I can pick it up. I have to get everything apart for paint and powder coat. Also have to Install front grill and make an opening in the front bumper so the radiator can get some air.




Going to do something like this
