Some things happened before I bought it, most happened after. The engine was completely stock ( a list of mods can be found in my profile thread) and thats where the majority of my money went... as well as the interior

Didn't see the list of mods?
But what's up with the WG? Or is it a work in progress still?
Looks like you picked it up with quite a few nice mods.

Needs some wheels that actually fill the space, and a nice body panel alignment.

carbon fiber arm rest
Euro carbon fiber gauge overlay

reverse indiglo hvac gauges (white, red, and blue... none of that glowing stuff)
Custom SAFC-II mount (carbon fiber replaces heater vent)
Carbon fiber glove box w/ps2
removed back seat
power inverter hardwired
dub mag audio 6.5 in doors...
thats I can think of for now...

Looks really good under the hood man! Outside is a tad ricey for me but it honestly it is pretty nice. If it were mine, I'd ditch the wing. Other than that nicely setup DSM. Time for some dyno numbers! :D

Thanks for the comments guys. I'd love to swap in some forged internals or even a built engine, but the army doesn't pay me enough to do anything that fun. So, i've been slowly piecing it together. Is everybody on this forum from minnesota?
