You need to rattle can the front of the intercooler to make it a bit more hidded. There was a 9 second Nova around town here a while ago that looked like that car.

Default Worth the wait

I knew when I met you in MEMPRICA that it would be worth the wait. I say we make the gold 66 4 dr the 417 Nitrous car. The more the doors the better the ******!!!!!! Not bigger the better.(clear that for you and your hog wrestling buddies) Maybe we could get the Golden Coral to sponsor us?!?!?!?!??!?!?

Holy ****, I'm lost.

Where is the intake air for the turbos?

And where do the pipes go that are entering each front fender?

Nice set-up.
However...
Saw a Youtube vid of a brown Ford Pinto wagon that ran 10s. When the front wheels lifted, i almost dropped a log. The only give away was the MTs on the rear. It even had half peeled off bumpersticker. Too funny.
