Great car! Nothing like a nice turbo build to get a guy thinking about changing directions with their car!

Is that a coolant reservoir on the drivers side beside the radiator? If so, where did it come from? Looks like something I've been looking for.

Sweet build that motor is killer. Love the color, wheels, tires and stance too.

Car has turned out great...Congrats!

Thanks Jay!

Yes I know I can't believe I've been doing most of this with a painted car either! That definatly wasn't the plan! When I started this car I knew what I wanted and built/fit everything painted it and then put the project on hold for awhile! That was a mistake as I spent a lot of time on this site and changed my mind and direction! Costing me a lot of time and $$$ lol. But building it painted has made me pay a lot more attention to detail and learnt a lot about patience! Lol

So i finally got the exhaust finished up After being mocked up i don't know how many times! Its complete stainless from the headers to the tailpipes and heat wrapped wherever its within 1 inch of touching anything! It was tricky fitting it around the DSE Quadralink suspension but having the trunk floor notched and fuel tank narrowed it turned out real nice! Ive got 3" header pipes crossing under the car and merging into the turbo and a 5" pipe coming off the turbo to a 5" braided flex then to a Borla Xr1 muffler ( mid car ) then I split the 5" pipe into two 3" pipes just before the diff. I managed to fit the 3" pipes in and around the suspension to the rear two Borla Xr1 mufflers on each side of the fuel tank. So even though it's a turbo car i really wanted that classic duel exhaust sound and look! Heres a few under car pics. ( sorry the pic qualities not so great! )

Well it was finally nice to get the car outside into some natural light! It was early and cold out but its was worth it as I'm taking it to "the shop" to get her up and running. If all goes well i will get some dyno time and hopefully get her dialed in with some base line RWHP #s
