Hmm, not too shabby...Any idea what kind of power you are putting down?

No idea. I was gonna throw it on the rollers at the fall dyno day, but that didn't work out.

Well I found a deal and half on some Recaro's out of an Evo, so I picked them up. Going to get the centers re-upholstered in black suede.

Also picked up a new engine for it. No pics at the current moment though.

But it has

Eagle H beam rods
Wiseco pistons bored .020 over and a 8.5 compression ratio
Butcher Crank from FFWD

Should be a good little engine for me. Also picked up HKS 272's from the same guy. So basically my hole engine set up will be new and I am also picking up a new turbo as well. It will be a whole new car when it finally warms up outside and I can start working on it again.

Alright, time for a bit of an update. To go along with the whole new engine, I figured I might as well top it off with a intake. Found this little guy on tooners.

Pretty nifty little piece to top it all off with.

I like that painted black, it looks neato.

It is actually the hard anodized option Magnus had for a little while. I like it too.

Today I picked up the Forced Performance DSM manifold. If people don't know they are running a special on them for 235 with the heat coating.
