What are you doing this summer? (Canadian Maritimes Members Only)

Well i had some crappy luck this summer, blew a rear main seal on the car, thought it was a tranny, took me a while to buy a new tranny to find out it wasnt even that lol got it back together drove it for a but knew theres serious big plans coming for it so i wanted to put it away, so i bought a acura el for a daily/winter mobile so i could start work on the cobalt, a tradition i always do is force myself to buy new tires by roasting them off so i was at my bros doing that and yea... the heart of the beast wanted to leave the car and now sits on the sub frame lol. bigger and better now i guess.

heres a sneak peek at whats to come.



only down fall now is, if i take the car to a store or anything, i have to remove that key

the car shold be away for a yr or so, im worried about a house at the moment so the car will be built slowly.

dont mean to start **** chris but why buy that? Only time you NEED one of those is at the drag strip and you need to be running faster then 10.99.

On another note, when i get back from afghanistan in march, ill be doing full bolt ons +meth + tune on the car. Still deciding if i want a bigger turbo now or later.

big plans doubt it will hit 10s but never know. im just gonna pic away at it for a while no rush this time.
turbo possibilities are Holset HX40, PT6262 or PT72
hen or if the car hits the track it will be the one and only time lol serious plans for engine bay so i dont wanna crack any welds or anything lol
