272 hks cams
2g pistons
Intake
14b turbo
Walbro rewired 255
Ecmlink v3
Pte 1000cc injectors

Thats the list as the car sits my plan is to build a nice reliable daily sitting around 250 awhp.
So what i plan on adding/doing :
16g mhi turbo
New timing belt
New headgasket
Professional tune
Repaint engine bay
Powdercoat a ton of stuff
Undercoat whole car
All black interior

As of right now i am just going to drive the car through out the winter this year and collect all my parts with the spare money i dont spend on my other car. Then pull the motor this spring when it warms up again to do everything to it thats listed.

Wow that looks super clean. 16g and pump will get you to about 250 at DB.

Thanks mike. It is pretty damn clean for sure. Minimal rust just some surface on the bottom. Strut towers were redone completely. And rear wheels wells are still there.
Heres a pic of the front

That was my setup two years ago before I threw my 2.4 back in and stepped up to a Green. I made 290 at DB on the 16G on pump gas, can't remember if that was the 2.0 or 2.4.
