big update.....
2 years of progress in one post.....ready, set, go!
well the car ended up making 400 rwhp on the dyno with everything shown above.
after taking the car to the track with my new found power, my sig explains what happened pretty well.
So it was back to the garage for more upgrades.
this was beginning to be it usual hangout
Adjustable viking coilovers and adjustable rear shocks
ditched my eibach pro kits and put some factory springs in the back with one coil cut off
next was that ugly factory rad getting swapped to the popular griffin
cutout behind my grill for more airflow
next i decided to ditch my intake setup and factory valve covers for something a little nicer. Also re-wrapped my headers at this time.
while it was out i decided to upgrade my clutch again for my future plans
got this monster 11" race clutch on sale at christmas time
and this was pretty much last years setup that i put maybe 500 miles on

no onto this years upgrades....and...here we go
started off with my new exhaust setup
which just so happened to lead up to a turbo
i tacked everything with my shitty fluxcore welder and then had my buddy tig everything up.
wrapped my uppipes with some titanium heat wrap
mounted my treadstone 4.5" thick intercooler
had my buddy weld a 1/2" npt bung in the driver side of my oil pan
started making my intercooler pipes
mounted my fast acting iat in my edelbrock elbow
vibrant vacuum manifold tucked back on the firewall
final assembly minus the turbo blanket
3" bumper exit exhaust.....because racecar
and a little idle/rev vid
