Quick update, rear end was causing some trouble and I expected the worst but ended up finding this bad boy to be the problem -



It's the outer bearing on the pinion shaft, apparently it had some side-side play that it didn't like.

Decided while the rear end was out of commission I'd go ahead and paint/clean up a few things....Intake and intercooler piping are all the same color now, VHT 1500* flat black....looks pretty good personally but I'm biased.

Some updates, as all of you know the Galant didn't make it back from the Shootout due to a faulty Jay's Racing alternator relocation bracket. Since the car was down I decided to do a few small much needed upgrades such as a new cat-back system, intake pipe, new axle, a replacement relocation bracket, along with some other misc. things.

Exhaust finished up and I was also able to install the oil cooler. Don't worry about the placement, but I'll be creating a duct from the wheel well to carry fresh air to that position.

Sorry this has been such an out-dated thread, but I just recently sold the car to a guy in Decatur. He traded his 2002 Gixxer 600 for my car. It was an FP3065 with an aftermarket T3 hotside.

As for cost, it cost a pretty penny but it was well worth it in the long run.
