mmkay, the judges voted, and we'll allow it. But the turbo must be installed within a month of final bumper install, or this approval is null and void. If the probationary period expires without the installation of forced induction, the car must be restored to stock, and the owner yoked to the wing and tossed off the nearest high building. Should the wing provide enough lift to carry the owner safely to the ground (a highly likely probability), then the owner shall be punished by competing in a sack race with an amputee. Should the amputee achieve victory in said sack race (again very likely), the owner shall be forced to ride the amputee to any destination in lieu of a car.

the turbo will be installed in the spring, after the replacement block and transmission get broken in.


for the winter i'll be raising the car back up to stock height, and putting the OE front back on

not trying to talk bad about you but it would have been easier to paint when painting car. Color looks real good though. What engine is that on the table?

i'll pull that time out of my ass.

Nice. Car looks good. Me and chad (plexer09) met up with some dude on the mirage forums that lives in spokane, he gave chad some free stuff. He drives a white one with a 4g93. I was real suprised to hear him say that he was only in the 16's? I figured a 1.8l swap would be faster than that in a rage.
