yes i have a radio zip tied to the firewall. that one in the pic got stolen, now i have a new one.
here are a few pics i took tonight, i didn't want to get a video cause i'm having issues with my cdm wastegate. well i don't think it's cause it's cdm.
yes i know my bumper is sitting a little off, i need to trim the bumper a little more. i'm gonna wait till my t-bolt clamps get here to take off the bumper.

also a couple things, yeah the outside of the car was painted blue once. when i bought it it was white and i decided to paint it blue, after a couple weeks i wanted it white again so i primered it. i should be painting it white again in a few months.
and i also know that the clear hose on the wastegate is not good, but it's all i had. i'm getting some proper hose tomorrow.

if anyone knows what is going on with my boost in my other thread please let me know
i'm making that thread right now.

You should see my jpipe... I used 2" pipe and then took a 2.5" pipe and welded the 2" to one side of it then crushed the 2.5" around and laid a big booger weld to seal it up. I'll get a today and put it up... that jpipe is a work of art compared to mine.

yeah i had a pinhole leak at the 2 to 2.5 pipe and no matter how much weld i put on it i still had the leak. so i got some steel putty and put it on that bitch.
so far so good, for my next project i'm getting a better welder.
