Near year-old reply but seeing how low the resale is on these cars it makes more sense to keep it for fun drives vs sell it

10 year anniversary of my first post - still running strong and still fun to drive!

I added a Comp Turbo CT4-6062 with a .81 A/R hot side. The PTP kit comes with a 3" intake, so I redid all that 3.5" all the way to the compressor, where I have a 3.5" to 4" silicone elbow. I added an HKS SSQV bov, only because I was trying to replicate what came with the kit, along with a TiAL 38mm wg with a .3bar spring to stay real low while starting to tune. I recirculated the bov. So far it idles really nice, like stock averaging 5g/s. Still got lots to do, but having fun... I lost an OMP line earlier this week, more on that in next post...
