Single exhaust looks so much better coming from driver side IMO

thanks everyone!

about the exhaust, i still havnt decided. i need to see comparison pictures, which ill research a bit.

as for gauges though i decided that im going to cut the center 2 air ducts, and put 4 gauges in there, and cover it with a tinted piece of glass so you cant see them unless the car is on.

thanks everyone!!

update:

fixed my heat!!

after looking, and trying to figure out if i had a vacuum line set up for the heat actuator thingy i decided to get a Y barbed plastic pipe, about 4ft of vacuum hose, 3 wire ties, and 4 clamps. i cut one of the vacuums from the intake, put the Y plastic piece in with clamps on it, and ran it to the actuator. since my car was already warm from getting supplies for my mini project i had almost instant heat!

hizzah!

lol


yay for having heat haha
