Replaced these broken tabs. We all have broken these before.



Put in a fresh black carpet and the rest of the center console pieces. Did a manual conversion and the shifter sits dead smack in the middle

Are you building new wheels or staying with the some ones you had before? I remember you already had some huge lips on your old rims.

Swapped wastegate spring, new exhaust housing is making more boost than the spring pressure. The old .70 house made the same as the spring the new .84 is going over 3 to 4 psi

Default replaced antenna

A while ago my antenna mast started making noise when it extended. Later I noticed that it would extend its full length and then retract about six inches before it turned off. Time for a new mast I guessed.

Reading the proceedures in CL and the TSM seemed to use the stock head unit so I had to wing it since I have replaced that with a touch screen unit. Wasn't too hard of a one person job and took maybe 15 minues total. Just unpluged the electrical connector in the fender and reattached when feeding the new cable in. Piece of cake.

Works well now - silent. Still retracts that 6 inches from full extension, so I have to believe that is how it is intended to work.

This is from Friday, me and a bud took a road trip down to Sanford Fl to see Jay and the guys at Realstreet.
Finally had the car running good enough to drive 4hr to get it tuned. The drive back home was a lot more fun.


They had a lot of nice car, I feel in love with this green




Stopped at 19psi he had another appointment and said was a nice save place to stop
He did leave room to turn it up a lil more 590whp is not that bad, car feels great
