Get ready for boost creep to rock your face with that external dump.

Re: Project Winter Beater

I repainted the hood with light bedliner and it looks much better. I fixed the head light from a car on its way to the junk yard. Found out jacls transmissions has an amazing OEM MITSU parts selection for super cheap and i found my fuel pump strainer. Unfortunatly a 5 foot wall of snow it keeping it from leaving my garage at this time.

Thanks again Travis!

Give me a week or two and we'll see. I plan to bring it into the shop at school first thing tomorrow and start trying different things. No CEL's but it has really weird running habbits and really stanky gas. So I'm thinking fresh 92 is in order and maybe an ecu swap to start out. I'll keep you all updated.
