Yeah, it is a little rough around the edges, but what can I say... She has been around the block a couple times.

the first 5 were shot with a nikon D60 (untouched),Next four were with a canon point and shoot(untouched), and the last three were with the same canon but touched up a little bit. Actually, the originals had a lot of saturation and contrast.

I was really wondering if anyone could notice the difference in cameras, lol. I just got the nikon, and I was comparing the how much better it was.

engine bay shots did not come out that great, and it was really dirty.

Yea now that i look more at it .. You can tell a difference with the D60. but the point and shoot canon still takes decently nice pictures lol ..

Awesome pics!!

I'm planning on going FI myself. My car is too much of a sleeper with the body color roof. Hopefully it will be more of a sleeper than yours!

How much boost btw and any numbers?

thanks! I posted one of the interior pics for the picture of the month, but I might post that one for next month.

No real numbers, I still trying to make some time to go put it on the dyno. Right now the car sees about 6.5-7psi. Car does not sound like a sleeper with the open down pipe, but once I finish the exhaust w/ cutout... It will be stealthy (a police officer lives right across the street from me). The only apperance differences, is that you can see the corners of the intercooler through the grill.

I might try and clean up the engine bay, and take some pics of that.
