Turbo runs waaayyy better than good, the only problems I'm currently having is the snow on the ground not letting me drive it anymore. Haven't really decided on what look I'm going for, have to figure what I can afford first.

I wish, I can break out all of my receipts and itemize it all for ya! (keep in mind that these are CAD prices not USD, so if you do the conversion it's not that bad. At least that's what I tell myself anyways. )

No doubt. This job would have cost me 1/3 of what it did if this was a Honda.

thanks man, my I/C is huge!! I had to cut the **** out of my front bumper to get it to fit!! no more bumper support!! I am not too worried about the I/C pipe scraping, my car is stock height, so ground clearance is good. I do plan on slamming it though so the pipe will be redone here shortly to pull it up like the other one. The washers are cool. too bad I'll be getting rid of them once I get a new front bumper. They actually physically extend off of the bumper to spray the lights.
