Answers to some questions:
hackish: This is a 1 5/8" x .134" mild steel 10pt roll cage. I was originally thinking of bending the pipe myself but it's cheaper just to buy a premade kit (at least in my area). So I bought this kit from swracecars.com. Very good site!! The cage is bent to my cars specs, they gave me all the help I needed (AND A DISCOUNT FOR NO REASON!), and the company is located in Spring City, PA. I live in Pittsburgh, PA so the shipping was sweet and an obvious choice!
Travis: I murdered your mom last night.
kyle: The car will be a daily driver during the spring and summer months this year pushing around 10-11psi. Next year though, the car will be track only (with the occasional street run
) and will have major internal work done to the engine. I'm trying to keep the sleeper look for the most part but it's kind of hard when I pull up to someone and they see a roll cage, hear the bov, and see about 10 gauges and electronics in the car 
hehe.

Looks like a nice little project you have there. Did the cage fit like they said it would?
