There is just something so cool about having my "rice" rocket in an old school muscle car place..... just goes to show you if you do it right - everyone can appreciate a good build.
So how long is your car going to be there, man?
You're not worried about people ******* with it? I would be, I just know someone would clip it with a ring or key and scratch it bad, or steal my shift ****, lol

that is a sweet looking ride man--obvious you have the wrench time in on that build.
be careful that smile on your face may become permanent if you hold it much longer!

Question for you guys... I'm seeing that a bunch of you have your front mounted intercoolers with no grill in the front. I have the Tsunami bumper with mesh installed and I'm going to be getting my turbo (finally) put in on the 11th. Should I ditch the mesh or leave it in place to keep crap from hitting the intercooler and oil coolers? I like how it looks either way, but I'm not sure if there is a compelling reason to remove the mesh or not. Also, I replaced my spark plugs on Friday and just hit 260 g/s MAF on my way to work today naturally aspirated...
^Nice.
Leave the mesh. I took out the oem grill because half of it is solid and blocks airflow, but everything else seems fine with a mesh. It will get dinged up without one. I left the mesh on with my new bumper.

maybe some of you guys can use a cold air supply like this.

there is a drain in there for water drainage--its really easy to do and it looks a lot better in person than in bad pic
