Yup. Still have it. It's all together and built.. but NA still. Should be turbo before spring. My kit on a customer car has made good power on relatively low boost and pump gas. So we'll see what mine does in the spring.

I pay rent to live at home guys..
Yea Aaron, This year is going to be a good one. I just got a raise tonight, and moved up on the food chain (now working as a light duty technician, with 3 dollars per hour more, on top of the flat rate/hourly pay)

Re: Snow flurries= SALT SALT SALT
Looks like I'm gonna have to go buy a new brush to clean the snow out of my wheels, I can't find my old one. For some reason, they fill up with snow really bad when going sideways.

Re: Snow flurries= SALT SALT SALT
Anyone in the Oakdale area see how much salt they put down today!!?? They put down so much here that it actually looks like snow on the roads! It pisses me off cause I was gonna try and take my car out one more time this season..

I am going to be taking tig welding classes as well. My mig is pretty good actually.
Well the car has custom everything bottom end: Rods, pistons, main cradle, bearings, sleeves, arp's, headgaskets, etc.. Heads are stock, but may not be by the time winter ends. On the turbo I have, it should make upper 800's. But I may sell the turbo while new and buy something a bit bigger.
And pics.. I should, it looks pretty decent these days. It needs a good detail and some claybar action(or something similar), but I've been meaning to take some updated pics.

Re: Snow flurries= SALT SALT SALT
This is the first time I drove my car in the winter when there is snow on the ground. Wow! benifits of AWD.
Now I am having trouble deciding if I want to keep driving my car or put it away for the winter...
Opinions about putting car away or not? One side of the argument is that I just cleaned everything up in the engine bay and the car looks nice, other side of me says it is just a fun car to drive and it should be driven.
It has a little rust so it is not a completely clean car. but it is only a little rust that can be fixed...
I Don't know... Plus the car heats up really quickly which is nice in the winter
