Other info:
-car has been boosted since may 1st, and has been running 11psi. So far i have not taken it to the dyno or ran it at the track. I am still on the stock clutch and it has been holding out fine, no slipping, no burning. Will probably dyno it soon as i want to know the difference in power when i upgrade the pulley and throttle body, previous #'s before boost was 129.8whp, 139.9wtrq

now that i've help do two 2.4 sc installs..i can say you did a nice and clean install..has my vote

 

can i see a front pic? like direct?

 

yeah there isn't a whole lotta room for theat intercooler lol.

 

thanks a lot. i did this as a 1 man team, took 10hrs, but i got it done


yeah that intercooler is not a very base model friendly one, the front bumper had to suffer, im hoping a RK front lip will help make up for it

 

Looks very nice! Good work!

 

sleeper FTW

 

stripes look bad, css.net stick on the fascia looks bad, and wtf did u do to your front fascia..that looks horrible

 

To each their own...

 

car looks good, but fyi, a rear bar that is bigger than the front will result in some horribly scary handling characteristics.

good luck, and keep working at it.

 

nice, i always thought of entering the COTM, but everytime it comes around my car is never done lol, it will never be done always more!

 

I didn't see your submission on the sticky thread (may have overlooked it though)...you may want to link so that it is officially entered... Any interior work? Would like to see an interior pic... No point is having something shiny on the outside if the inside hasn't been kept up with as well....

 

nice work...now go awaya so i have less competition

 

nice, like i told tom ss/sc wing dont look good IMO. Good job!

 

I need to take a new I terior shot, and I forgot to link my thread over, I can't anymore bc I'm on a iPhone so I have to wait till I get on my laptop

 

damn... still wondering who to vote for... you woulda been in the running... but that ugly dirty engine bay is kinda bad... BUT... awsome sleeper for sure.

 

you got my vote man
