Where did you buy the turbo? Thats similiar to what I want. Your build is just simply sick. Thats about 100 more horsepower than the normal swap makes on here that I have seen.

Its a custom one for me but im sure you can call slowmotion motorsports and tell them you want the same turbo i have and they can probably get another one. just know it wont be cheap.

Pics of parts waiting on going on the car. Jon should be getting started on the cage on monday and should be done in a week. Cutting it close for the 17th but not much I can do.

Biggu, cage looks nice! Any plans to paint or powder coated it? I know this is probably the last thing on your mind, just thought I'd ask.

cage is all painted and the wheels are painted as well.

car got wired up last night and fired right up but I dont have any gauges go figure. So once i figure that out i just need an alignment, new intake and a retune and we should be ready for this weekend.

yep, they are cheap and good sizing!

got the hydro remounted and all the gauges mounted back into the car. for the longest time I wasn't getting any tach or RPM or any lighting on the tach or RPM. just the signal lights and I got that resolved there was ground that i missed behind the dash.

Seats go back in today along with harness. bringing the car for an alignment tomorrow along with filling up my 55 gallon drum of e85 for the weekend.
