eh ill never have the time or the money to go turbo. it would be cool though, but i honestly cant see it happening. i would be happy with some headwork being done and clutch/flywheel, and some more suspension mods.

i pretty much just went for it. my friend accidently let all the free-on get out into the atmosphere. it scared the shit out of me, it was so unexpected. it was the 2nd time he did it. when we tryed to take out my F22 the kid did the same thing. the lines are all go. pretty much everything A/C related in the engine bay is gone.

as for the line coming from the gas tank, im probaly gonna re-route it further away from where i or passengers can smell it.

and for the 99CL wheels, im holding onto those for as long as i can. sorry man.

its also obvious with my car i have no enviromental responsibility.

Hey Matt. I think you might want to keep that v2 piping. The air temp will make a diff in performance. plus that filter directly in that tb looks just out of place

also hid the resistor box and some engine harness'.

its dark so ill take pictures tommorow. i have to de-grease the driver side shock tower now that i freed up some space over there.
