next i took off the downpipe so i could have it mated to that. prepare to see one funky looking but functional downpipe
believe it or not. this can come out easy from the top.
here are the pics of it installed.
no pipe
no more on boost wastegate scowl! but my wastegate opening and closing sound is more noticable. lol

ok so at one point in time. i wanted to get the Vertex look. except i didnt have like 3 grand to get the proper kit.
so i went to EBAYYYYYYY!
got this from AIT. the V speed body kit. it was a front bumper and skirt kit. it fit like crap. and i regret buying it.
came in this huge box
moving a long. i tried to see how it looked on the front. since i already had the original 92 bumper off. i'd just slip it on and have a look see.
anyway i sold it. lost money on it. but oh well. u live and learn. someone from this board bought it. they made it look good on their car. but it just wasnt for me. i went 97 oem look. that was expensive to say the least.

Nothing like finding some 97 parts in a time of need. I hate the others didnt like right and fit correctly, but the 97 OEM looked way mo better imo. The build is coming along quite nicely. I am also subscribed.

this one is the first start with the single turbo. its pretty loud. the microphone was breaking up. and there was no muffler. open downpipe. it sounds like its missing, but its not.
