I don't think your auto transmission would last long with the turbo kit. Whatever you do, don't put the graphics on the car. It seems strange that you have a breather filter on your valve cover, yet you seem to still have the factory air intake system.

yeah man your tranny will not last long with the turbo.

btw, your car is pretty nice man, just dont put any graphics on your car is looks good how it is right now.

looks like you like to photoshop too, if you go into "OFFTOPIC" up at the top, then "ramblings" there are sometimes photoshop threads for you to mess around with.

welcome to the board

For $3400 I'm sure you could do an H22 swap and a 5mt swap while you're at it. Maybe even have some money left for some cams.

those graphix would be sweet but just use like the back part of it and run it up further like fan it out like caligraphy from your mirror, go down then make it a v like it is and then like take it down to the back to where it ends now but then take the little graphic from the front and put it under the other one and mimic its lines. thatd be tight

$3,400 would be a good down payment on a car that's already fast.

how many miles does the 99 have, just to let you know, almost all 3.0 trannies give out. im not possitive if all will, someone more knowledable might want to tell you, but i think at around 100k, they begin to slip.

if the 99 does not have that many miles on it, you can put a tranny cooler in and that would help your tranny a lot. i have also heard of doing the tranny flush every other oil change, that will help out too.

i have a 99 3.0 and i love it. im at 100,200k and i have felt it slip. but i wouldnt want a 2.x. to each his own.

If your car's an auto, a turbo will destroy that tranny pretty quick. Our trannies are notorious for being shakey to begin with.
