Tom's Build *updated*

ok, so everyone else is....MY TURN!!!! lolol
so, my car as it sits has (performance wise):
clear image 4-2-1 header
clear image 2.5" catless DP
clear image 3" exhaust w/ magnaflow resonator and muffler
ebay CAI w/ aem dryflow air filter
Trifecta tune
upper strut bar
TTR rear sway bar
ss/tc struts and shocks
H&R sport springs
17" rims w/ Nitto Neogen 225/45/17 tires
TTR solid upper engine mount
TTR tranny mounts
MRZ lightweight alternator pulley
MRZ lightweight crank pulley (oem size due to stereo)
2.4l intake mani
2.4l TB
lsj injectors
stage 2 comp cams
Shaved cyl head .020"

Im planning on (in the near future):
eibach front sway bar
upgraded end links
11" front brakes: EBC rotors w/ hawk ceramic pads
drag radials
wider lighter rims
some other odds and ends :P

after this (cause ill be happy for a while) im going to build a second motor:
not sure on details but...
rods, pistons, ported and polished head (bought with all upgraded parts installed...not sure of vendor on here, but there is one), thinner head gasket, clutch, lsd tranny, balance shaft deletesaxels, upgraded clear image 4-2-1 header, and another retune lol.

im hoping to hit mid 200's whp wise with this and think that its very possible if i can get the compression ratio up there a bit.

Right now (before the tranny and engine mounts and on stock tires with the old exhaust) i ran at 154.7 whp and 157wtq and a 15.4s at the track.
i think with some practice as it sits i can hit damn close to an even 15s 1/4 time and close to 160whp now that i have upgraded the exhaust.

Will update as i add parts and do some track/ dyno runs

thread updated with build info, pics, dynos, track runs, etc
