2.0 Turbo build This Weekend!
Nice man, with the smaller wheels and tires did ya doing anything to make the speed and rpm read correctly. I ask this cause I am thinking of going to 17's, yep, 17's but if I do I just might have to install my sportlines(how was that too?).
Guys did a awesome job, cannot wait to see it, hear it and maybe even ride. Think I can spare 10 haha.

well, the radials are maily for track days.....still have the 18's for daily driving. And as far as the sportlines, they went in easy...I could probably have them done in under an hour.
as far as the tuning....we have the tune from Rebel, so hopefully it will be pretty close....we'll see once we get it running and plug the HPT into it....fun fun

this point has been covered in the past.
you'll have to do a 98% re-tune.
Yea, I am trying to decide if I want to have them put in or not. I could use the extra cash if I manage to sell them(than my friend would give me my projectors I am slowly paying for, new style). But eh, tough one, the drop would look good though.
yea, I have the pro-kit on my car now....I really wish I would of gotten the sportlines instead
Almost got them too but said the lower drop, the nicer. Of course now I do not know, if you want mine, you know they are for sale
. No one has said anything besides one person and I do not want to ship these, price would increase if I did, HEAVY package.
my apologies on the off-topic.

From: Voted by the people, most likely to get pulled over by a cop
UPDATE: Saturday afternoon we fired the car up, but were having a problem with the custom idler pulley bracket not wanting to stay in its place. All the tension when under pressure kept on pulling the idler pulley further and further down, so we just had started it for a min due to that. We tried doing a few things to make it work correctly but it just would not. Now I am just awaiting for a junkyard to be open to go pick up a 2.2l alternator and the connector we are going to delete that pulley. I have the 2.2 tensioner already as well. So as soon as I can pick up the alternator and connector I will put it on and it will be running. Should have some more info in a few days.
Well the 2.2 alternator swap works just fine. Finished that yesterday, but just gotta make on small modification to the bracket for it because the belt was rubbing. Anyways we fired up the car and let it just run for a little bit with no exhaust. There is an exhaust leak somewhere but hard to tell will be looking into it either tonight or tomorrow. No vids or pics yet sorry will have some in a few days .
yea man.....it lives!! I told you the alternator swap would work just fine....and it looks much cleaner. I'll get that bracket modified tomorrow at work and we'll slap it on and get it ready for the track sunday!!!

On the other hand its charging the car pretty good. Its getting 13.5 volts which is a little less than the stock one, but seems to be doing good. I talked with another person who has done the swap as well and hes seeing no problems with it. Time will tell, but there shouldnt be any problem.
