bad ***..... im thinking about selling mine for a while...... Focal Utopia 165W's up front and a Focal Utopia 13WX out back ran by two Eclipse amps...... sounds good..... but no room now.... i think ill just keep the one amp and the highs for cruising tunes with no sub..... that part sucks........

We forgot about pimping hoes also...

Heh, well it's been more than a month; it's been slowly forming since June when I got the car.

Actually I'm just looking-for/hoping-for 10s; all of this extra weight and no reduciton minus spare and jack... it's a pig.

you will have to modify the crossover pipe
it bangs the bottom of the tranny and makes the computer pull spark
I think that I am going to re-do the passanger side heddar and crossover with a aftermarket K member and run the pipe in front of the oil pan
it would work fine on a auto car
I just took mine and used a press to flatten it out a little so it would not hit
and the gound clearance it pretty bad there also

Very nice...I wish I had *** loads of turbo stuff in my living room...i have some stuff in my garage but it's for the oldschool small block, and does me no good since i switched powerplants over to the LS1...Let me know when it gets running and tuned, I wanna know what numbers you got so I can kinda maybe formulate a guess as to what mine will do when it's done.
