Wow on the weight.How are you going to get your weight down so low?The turbo and intercooler add a bunch of weight and you're a full-size guy.So the car is going to weigh around 2900lbs.

I weighed 3360-90 (varied from track to track) with the previous combo. I removed all the carpet deadner, speakers, fuel tank, tons of misc. brackets, front bumper supports, factory wiring harness, etc.. It is just an estimate, I may be a little more when all is said and done but 3200 is my goal.
